More Information About the Groups:
Group members are expected to attend each meeting. The purpose of this "closed group series" is to foster a sense of community and connection among parents and other adult family members who are grappling with similar situations. The intention is to build a support network that extends beyond the duration of the group.
The Parents of Adults Support Group Series provides a safe place for you to:
- give voice to your concerns, frustrations, and hopes
- acknowledge both hard-won and unexpected victories
- learn and connect with other parents who are in similar situations
- find out about resources geared to help your son or daughter move forward towards independent living, employment, or relationship goals
Members of the Parents of Adults Support Group Series also get access to more than $300 worth of AANE webinars.
To participate in the
online
support group series meeting, you should have:
- A strong internet connection
- Be in a quiet place
- Use a PC or tablet equipped with a webcam, microphone, and video capability
