How We Impact the Community

We believe in the awesome inner strength of parents – because we see it every day! The moms and dads who come to us for guidance in raising their special needs children are often confused, overwhelmed, or grieving, yet at the same time, determined to find a bright future for their precious child.

These kids have all kinds of challenges, large and small, and each one needs a grownup who’ll stand up for them and make sure they have the chance to grow and flourish. Our parents learn how to advocate through many different systems to get the help their children need to survive and thrive.

Staffed by professional advocates and counselors (who all have a child with special needs in their families). we’re as passionate about creating positive futures for these kids as their parents – because we’ve walked the same path on our own journeys.

Although every child with special needs is different and every family is unique, all parents face unexpected challenges as their child grows up. If you have a concern about your child or teen give us a call. We understand – and we are here to help!

Testimonial

My daughter was being bullied at school and her mental health was deteriorating quickly. Connecting with the ParentsCAN staff, they understood me right away, and the classes had such a positive impact on my family.
