Mental Health Support For Families
Providing a virtual support network for parents and children facing mental illness, eating disorders, special needs, and intellectual disabilities.
WE HELP
We help kids struggling with mental health disorders/illnesses and their siblings in the home age appropriate groups and therapeutic activities they can participate in. In the near future we will have a virtual after school and tutoring program. All the kids can come say hello or get help from a tutor. This will run on school days during the school year Mon-Fri 3 pm-5 pm. In the near future we plan to start a mentoring program for the kids.
Parenting is hard! It’s even harder when the parent is living with a mental health disorder/illness. We provide parents a support system by offering support groups, parent improvement classes, self improvement and therapeutic activities.
