Organization Information
Mission Statement
Our mission is to support a national network of Parent to Parent programs to ensure access to quality emotional support for families of individuals with disabilities and/or special health care needs.
Description
Parent to Parent USA is a national alliance of parent to parent programs. The Parent to Parent network is a growing national resource for families. Statewide, regional and local community-based programs continue to emerge out of grassroots efforts, and new statewide Parent to Parent programs are being developed to support the efforts of local programs.
The strength of Parent to Parent comes directly from the parents who dedicate themselves to its continuing success. Parent to Parent programs support parents of individuals with disabilities or special health care needs. This support includes a peer to peer network of support parents who have made the offer to assist other parents.
