Our mission is to improve the quality of life for individuals with disabilities and their families through community inclusion and support.
Often the most valuable form of support comes from other parents who have traveled the road before you. We understand the emotion, myths, and realities of parenting a child with a disability.
Start here.
We walk with families through every life stage of their child/adult. Each stage of life presents its own challenges and rewards. Resources can be found here.
Take a look.
Whether your child was just born, just adopted, just diagnosed or waiting for a diagnosis, or you recently moved, there are resources to help you get started today.
Begin here.
Social/recreational activities, informational workshops, and support meetings for parents/caregivers and individuals with disabilities are taking place all the time.

We welcome your feedback, suggestions, information, or questions.

For a computer trained to see it, though, the movement is obvious.
