Family Engagement Picnic
Our Family Engagement Picnic is an annual event provided for families being supported by our organization and typically takes place in February. Parents come together for a great day of fun and relaxation to network and share stories with other parents who have children with disabilities. This annual picnic allows children to play together in a safe and nurturing environment where everyone’s “abilities” are celebrated.
Community agencies and sponsor partners are invited to join the fun and help provide community resources to help parents get the information they need to thrive. Interested in joining our event? Please contact us for more information.
