This group is to serve the unique (and non-unique) needs of GLBT parents to support one another through sharing stories, advice, and encouragement.

As a lesbian mother of an adopted special-needs teenager and step-mom to my partner's three kids, I'm aware of the need for conversation and support. As a Unitarian Universalist minister, I am hoping to facilitate gatherings that provide t …

This group is for anyone with kids 0-5, looking to get together on Fridays from 10 to 12 to make friends and have fun! We'll switch up locations but having the set routine will let our kids develop real friendships and a sense of community they don't automatically have until they go to school. We also have periodic home meetups that members can schedule for days/times that work for them, and there is no commitment to hosting one if you attend one. This group is for parents that want to try to co …

Today, TeenLife Media features more than 4500 local, national and international listings, including summer program …

The purpose of the group is to provide support for parents whose kids have multiple needs and many acronyms (ASD, PDD-NOS, NVLD, HFA, SI, ADHD, etc.,!) I know there are other parents like me whose children need multiple therapies, appointments, school accommodations, parent-created behavior plans, and super-hero advocates in their parents. It is exhausting, overwhelming, and often isolating. I hope we can share resources and support, and have a little fun while we're at it. Feel free to e-mail m …
