The Fathers’ Support group is open to Fathers in Waterloo Region who have a child (of any age) with an intellectual disability and/or autism.
It is a great opportunity for Dads to discuss a wide range of topics related to parenting a child with an intellectual disability and/or autism. Fathers learn from guest speakers as well as from each other, sharing wisdom, understanding and a chance to talk to other Dads who “Get it”.
Some of the topics discussed in the past year were Self-Care, Stress at Holiday Time and Bullying. Speakers have brought knowledge about Anxiety, Speech Therapy, and Person-Directed Planning.
The Fathers Support Group meets on the 3rd Tuesday of month from 6:30-8:30pm.
Please call 519-741-1121 for more information about how to join.
