  Coffee Chats: 

Dates to be determined

Join us for encouraging and supportive gatherings for parents with special needs children where you are always welcome.  Coffee Chats provide a safe and nurturing environment where parents can connect with others who understand their unique challenges.  It's important to have a space where parents can share their experiences and feelings without fear of judgement, and where they can gain valuable knowledge and resources to support their children.  Coffee Chats can be incredibly empowering and uplifting for special needs parents.
