Revamping ADL Center Plans

Special Hearts Club Sundays 9PM

Posted by dsoucy - 08/25/08, 09:32 pm

We have a new addition to ADL Chat Support! A new live instant chat support is being introduced, with a new moderator and theme. Each Sunday evening, at 9PM Eastern, MawBear will host the Special Hearts Club, and in her words this is going to be

 "A place where grandparents raising special needs children can get together and relate to one another. This is our place to share stories, struggles, triumphs and to vent when we need to. A place where others will understand where we are coming from."

As the founder of ADL Center, I learn more and more of generous and loving Grandparents raising and taking care of their grandchildren. ADL Chat is honored to be a place for the ENTIRE  family, and that includes grandparents, and most certainly, those that are caring for their special needs grandchildren. So, if you know of a grandparent raising a special needs child, please share this information with them so that Sunday evenings, they can join MawBear on ADL Chat to discuss the unique challenges of raising a special needs grandchild.
