We have paused our monthly parent support group due to low registration numbers. We'd love your feedback about how we can make it more accessible. Unfortunately we aren't able to offer childcare at the library, but we are open to holding it at another location where we can offer childcare for a small fee (we do not have a space in mind for this, but maybe you do?).

If you have an interest in the support group, please complete our survey: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdx0Ekc0RU2Ebzw5ziBGkcjMLMNWKy2BOOMtNJOsyJvDrVUpw/viewform?usp=dialog

Tomorrow is the day! Please join us for our
Support Group for Parents of Neurodivergent Children!
Today 10-11:30 Main Library (300 N. Roxboro St) Meeting Room #4311
Registration is required!
We will see you there.
