Texas Parent to Parent provides support, information and education to navigate the disabilities world.

Families of children with disabilities feel very isolated after receiving a diagnosis for their child. Many have no idea where to turn or how to find someone to help them understand what they are facing. The doctors who provide the diagnosis rarely have useful resources for them other than the large disability organizations.

We have found that just having another parent to talk with, whether one-on-one or in-person, helps them feel that they are not alone in their journey. Knowing that there are people going through similar journeys with their child helps them know that they can get through whatever comes their way. And knowing that they can reach out to Texas Parent to Parent is comforting even if they rarely reach out - knowing someone is there is enough. But when they need help or a shoulder to lean against, we are there for them.
