Dad Rocks, a Fathers Support Group, begins on May 18, 2011 and will be held on a quarterly basis for both English and Spanish-speaking fathers. This is a special get together for dads to meet, to share their experiences, and to support each other as they travel the sometimes frustating, yet rewarding highway of raising their special needs child or young adult. The group will be led by fathers and attended by fathers, and we welcome all fathers, no matter how mild or severe your need may seem. So don't be shy. Visit us soon.

Meetings scheduled for May 18, August and November1 2011. (Childcare Will Be Provided)
Time: 6:30 - 8:30pm

REACH Support Group

Raising a child or young adult 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 other, low times need to be shared as well. Those "low times" are when we need understanding and support the most.

REACHsupport group was established to provide that kind of help. Our group is lead by parents and attended by parents. We recognize that our children may have different needs and go through different stages as they are growing. 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 stresses. The goal of REACH as well as as PARENTS'S PLACE is to help you on your journey with your special needs child and young adult. We welcome everyone, no matter how mild or severe your need may seem.

Every first Thursday of the month      (Child Will Be Provided)
Time: 7:00 - 8:30pm

NUEVO DíA Grupo de Apoyo

Críar a un niño ccon necesidades especiales es parecido a subirse a una monataña rusa.Como padres podemos subir hasta lo mas alto de la montaña con los recuerdos de los buenos momentos, pero tambien, nos podemos hundir hasta lo mas bajo con los tiempos no tan buenos. No onstante que los eventos especiales tienen que celebrarse, disfrutarse y compartirse con otros, tambien los momentos bajos tienen que compartirse. Son en estos momentos bajos en los cuales necesitamos mas entendimiento y apoyo.

El grypo de apoyo NUEVO DÍA ha sido restablecido, para ayudar a nuestras familias que hablan español, para que conozcan a otros padres que qizas esten pasando por situaciones similares, sean buenas o malas. Como padres de niños con necesidades especiales necesitamos un circulo de amigos que nos entiendan, y que puedan relacionarse con nuestras ansiedades y la tension de el diario vivir. Nuestro grupo es dirigido por padres y atendido por padres, y esperamos que se úna a nosotros cada segundo Miercoles de el mes, no importa que tan moderada o severa su necesidad parezca ser.
