Caring for the Caregiver: Parent Support Circle

Support for parents raising children with complex medical needs and special needs.

A supportive space for parents navigating the unique challenges of caregiving.

Parenting a child with complex medical needs and/or special needs can bring deep love and purpose, but it can also be exhausting, isolating, and overwhelming at times.

Many parents in this role are constantly managing appointments, treatments, advocacy, and day-to-day care while still trying to support the rest of their family and responsibilities.

You may feel like you're always “on,” with very little space to talk about your own experience.

This free Parent Support Circle is a place where parents of children with complex medical needs can connect with others who truly understand the realities of medical caregiving.
