Caring for a child with complex needs can be tough - and it’s completely valid to feel overwhelmed sometimes. We want you to know that you are not alone. There are people who understand what you’re going through and who want to support you.

Our virtual program, Caring for Children with Complex Needs, is specially designed for caregivers of children with complex needs under 18. This group is for parents, relatives, grandparents, and foster parents - providing a space to share experiences, learn about caregiving challenges, and reduce feelings of isolation.

This group is led by a trained facilitator that will help guide discussion and learning through educational topics and general support.

Program Details:
📅 Tuesday mornings
⏰ 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM
📍 Online
⭐ Registration is free and is ongoing. New participants can join at any time.

Upcoming spring session dates:

Megan Hanson, Mayor of Sylvan Lake, is the mom of a child who has autism, and has been waiting 20 months to access supports from FSCD (Family Support for Children with Disabilities). Her son was recently removed from yet another daycare because they said they couldn't support his needs. Sadly, this family's story is a common experience around the province.
