Parent and Caregiver Support​

​

 

Neurodivergent Adolescents

This monthly virtual group is for parents and caregivers of neurodivergent teens and young adults. Each meeting includes a loosely structured topic to guide discussion as well as space for parents to exchange experiences and resources. Topics address evolving needs during adolescence and early adulthood, including online safety, relationships and dating, bullying, and more. Facilitation helps families think through interaction patterns, environmental supports, and the complex social dynamics that often emerge during the teen and young adult years. Enrollment is ongoing; scheduling will be determined based on interest and availability.

​

Newly Identified Autism Parent Series 

This six-session virtual series is designed for parents and caregivers whose child or teen has been recently identified as autistic. The sessions combine facilitated discussion with opportunities for parents to exchange perspectives, share resources, and reflect on their own family context. Each session includes a focused topic to guide discussion, such as understanding communication profiles, navigating the school environment, supporting autonomy and identity development, and making sense of the many approaches and recommendations families may encounter after diagnosis. The next cohort is expected to begin mid-April, with scheduling determined by participant availability.
