Promoting Strengths & Independence in Individuals with Autism
Family Support Group
Are you a family member or caregiver of an individual living with Autism or another developmental disability? Join us at The Tailor Institute's Family Support Group, a welcoming and supportive environment designed specifically for you.
​
Our monthly meetings provide a unique opportunity to connect with others who understand the challenges and celebrate the triumphs of raising a child with developmental disabilities. Whether you're looking for advice, encouragement, or simply a listening ear, this group offers a space to share experiences, gain insights, and build lasting friendships.
You do not need to be a current participant at The Tailor Institute to attend—everyone is welcome! Come and be part of a community that values support, camaraderie, and the power of shared experiences.
