Family Support Sessions: Testimonials
"Thank you for providing a safe space for parents and caregivers to share their experiences, joys, fears, accomplishments, etc. Such a wonderful opportunity. John and I look forward to making connections with others who are traveling this same road. Our hearts already feels lighter!"
- LeeAnn & John
"I appreciate this parent group that Hannah leads.
She brings a thoughtful platform with slides and situations that affect a majority of parents and caregivers of people with special needs. She is able to help me see how chronically the effects of lifelong caregiving can impact the caregiver/s and how to recognise these situations before burnout. Recognition then enables shifts to better understand myself and care for myself to promote a healthier whole. Thank you Hannah for these topics and discussions. I look forward to many more."

"This gathering can provide many avenues as parents and caregivers navigate possibilities
together to create this venue into something very special. To discuss strengths and successes as well as struggles and weaknesses, to use each other as resources and experiences not yet traveled by one or another. Our journeys have all been different, we all have been navigating at times blind, yet we have so much in common. Our love and care for our person as well as needed support from a community to help us keep up our strength, to network, and pass along strategies that have helped us along our journeys."
