How Can I Get In Touch With Other Parents?

Many parents who have children with special needs are seeking out the same resources you are and want to meet other parents to exchange information and ideas. Listed below are some parent support networks that you might want to contact. Most of these groups welcome parents regardless of their area of residence. Support groups are listed by county for your convenience. If you do not see the group you're looking for in your county, please check the other counties WarmLine serves.

"The wonderful thing about finding a good support group isn't the stuff you actually say, it's all about the stuff you don't have to say.  These people have walked in your shoes."
