This group is for families of children who are enrolled in early intervention services in New Jersey. The purpose of the group is to provide an opportunity to meet other families, share ideas, give and receive support and learn new information. Parenting a young child with special needs is a joyful and challenging task that can be enhanced by the friendship and support of others. Join us to share your child's accomplishments, receive support for your challenges, swap solutions to problems and make new friends. Information about meetings and workshops of interest to families will be posted by the state's Family Support Staff.
A couple of cautions: please refrain from using the group to complain about specific agencies, doctors or providers. Information presented on the list is not intended to be medical or therapeutic advice. All questions regarding appropriate health care and intervention strategies for your child should be discussed with your physician or early intervention provider.
