Family Connect

Caring for a child with a disability presents a host of joys and challenges. It’s important for families to feel supported, informed and connected to one another.

ADAPT’s Family Connect offer free workshops, support services and educational resources for New York City parents and families of children with disabilities. Families are encouraged to learn, explore resources and participate in improving outcomes and supports for all children with disabilities.

Resources include:

  • Training workshops and forums on a variety of topics (available in English and Spanish)
  • Introductions to collaborative relationships in the community- liaisons between schools, resource libraries, demonstration centers and clinical programs
  • Up-to-date community resource information
  • Empowerment and advocacy
  • Confidential guidance
