Parent to Parent

Provides support and resources to families that care for a child or adult with disabilities and/or special healthcare needs.

Parent to Parent Can Help

Parent to Parent can guide you to community resources, support in a variety of different ways, help with navigating systems, and connections with other families with special needs. All ages, stages and abilities. We may not be therapy, but we sure are therapeutic. We will share knowledge, and resources, and provide support and guidance. Or sometimes you may just want to chat and meet others in our community that is on a similar journey.
