PARENTS’ PLACE SUPPORT GROUPS

 

Raising a child with special needs is much like riding a roller coaster.  As parents, we have our low times, but we have our good times, too. Though special events need to be celebrated, enjoyed, and shared with others, the low times need to be shared as well.  Those "low times" are when we need understanding and support the most. Our support groups were established to provide that kind of help.  They are lead by parents and attended by parents.  We recognize that our children may have different needs.  As parents, however, we all have the same needs -- a shoulder to cry on, a listening ear, and a circle of friends who understand and can relate to our anxieties and day-to-day stress.  The goal of PARENTS' PLACE is to help you on your journey with your special needs child. We welcome everyone, no matter how mild or severe your need may seem.
