Vision
We believe children and their families can be successful and families/caregivers are the experts on their children’s needs and should be the main-decision-makers for their children. We understand the struggles and barriersn that parents face when accessing services and supports for their children in schools, the “system” and in their own communities because we too, have children with unique needs. We understand the importance of being able to talk to a nonjudgmental person who understands the challenges we face at home, with schools and in the community. We are dedicated to strengthening and empowering families by providing access to resources, support, advocacy and education.

Some say you don't "parent" a teenager. You guide them. You give them the facts. Unfortunately, they may not listen. That comes with the territory.

Exploring is part of our nature. We genuinely enjoy discovering new things. Unfortunately, not much of the world is left unexplored. But children don't know that. Take them to a creek or pond and pretend it is an unexplored area. Take notes on everything you find. Take pictures. You can relive the expedition over and over again!

The bottom line, where the buck stops, is this: BE THERE FOR YOUR CHILD. Whether that means help them with home work, helping them study for tests, playing catch with them, cooking for them, or whatever... BE THERE. Your child is your most important project, but they are more than that, even.

Keeping your community clean is one of the most honorable acts you can do. Pick up trash. Recycle. Do your part. Make it a teaching moment. You may not have much effect on a national scale, but on a local scale, you do. No doubt.

Something I hear all the time is, "We don't know how to be a parent." But the truth is, until you become one, you never will truly know. It's on-the-job training at its finest. You raise yourself as much as you raise your child.

Another fun learning opportunity is gardening, whether it is in a plot of dirt or just in containers with dirt in them. Teach your child about food and where it comes from. It's a piece of knowledge that seems to be getting lost over time. Don't let it be lost. Pass down the knowledge. You never know when it will be useful again...

Sometimes campouts can be as simple as setting up a tent in the backyard, either your own or a consenting friend or loved one. If there's a fire pit, even better. You can sit by a camp fire, telling stories, making smores, listening to music. I did this the other night with my nephew and his father. There's nothing more primal and in touch with our true selves.

Be vigilant with your children. Know their friends. Know their friend's parents. Know their teachers. Know what they are watching. Know what they are doing. You don't have to "helicopter parent." Just be vigilant.

Watching storms can be interesting to both children AND adults. Use this as another learning opportunity. Teach them about weather patterns, the water cycle, types of clouds, whatever you have some knowledge of. Or just use your smart device. Ask it questions.
