ATTACh offers an online community of support for parents and caregivers twice each month, one evening session on the 2nd Monday of each month and one daytime session on the 4th Wednesday of each month. Half of these gatherings are “open sharing and support” – we discuss any topic, question, challenge or success that any participant brings to the meeting. The other half of the sessions have an identified topic, based on requests from previous participants. The meeting will include a brief (20 minute) mini training on the scheduled topic, followed by discussion and open sharing and support. We hope you can join us for some or all of these gatherings!
