Join Our Parent Groups
One in Five Minnesota families with children have a child with a disability or chronic health condition. We do not have to feel alone.
Groups are open to parents of children and youth with special health care needs or disabilities. Connect in a private, safe space to share understanding, support and resources.
Charting the LifeCourse
Tools For Planning for a Good Life
Charting the LifeCourse tools and materials are designed to help families articulate their vision of what they want/don’t want for their family members, identify and access key supports, and have conversations with their family members and supporters about planning for a good life now and in the future.
Join Our Good Life Groups
Beginning February 23rd, 2023
Join an interactive learning collaborative for parents of school-aged children who have IEP’s. Learn how to communicate what your child wants and needs at school using Charting the LifeCourse (CtLC) tools. All participants will create a three part portfolio for their student that can be shared with the school team. Space is limited.
