The Value of Family-to-Family Connections

Supporting a family member with a disability can often feel isolating, making it challenging to navigate the journey alone. You may have found various resources and support services, but not necessarily a community of people who truly understand your experiences and make you feel seen, heard, and understood.

Finding spaces where you don’t have to explain yourself or your life, and where you can connect with other families with similar experiences, can be a great relief—helping you feel less isolated and fostering a genuine sense of belonging.

Join us for this updated webcast, featuring special guests Ben Postmus and Connie Burns, as we explore the transformative power of families connecting with one another. Sharing their experiences and insights, our guests will highlight how family connections foster resilience, courage, advocacy, empowerment, and creative innovation.

What’s in it for you: 

  • Learn how connecting with Family Support Networks strengthens your voice and capacity, and helps reduce feelings of isolation.
  • Understand what to expect from a Family Support Network and how to find or build one that fits the needs of your family.
  • Gain actionable insights, practical strategies, and shared knowledge from experienced family caregivers who have started their own Family Support Networks.

 

A live Q&A will follow the presentation with our panelists. You don’t want to miss it!
