GAB Groups are safe, compassionate spaces where parents and caregivers raising children with disabilities can talk openly, listen, share, and connect. GAB Groups are always facilitated by fellow parents, so you’ll be welcomed by someone who truly understands what it’s like.

GAB Support Groups provide a safe, compassionate space for parents and caregivers to connect with fellow parents raising a child with cerebral palsy or another disability. These groups are facilitated by parent volunteers, creating a supportive, understanding environment to vent, share challenges and joys, seek advice, listen, and talk openly in a non-judgmental space--reminding you that you are not alone!
