Support Services
Children and adults with special needs aren't the only ones who need our services. Parents, siblings, caregivers, and other family members often need support, too.
Overview
Easterseals offers these services to our families and caregivers of children with special needs:
Grupo de Apoyo
Este grupo de apoyo para padres está abierto a cualquier persona que esté criando a un niño con alguna discapacidad o condición médica. Este grupo es para familias de habla hispana. El grupo se reúne el primer martes de cada mes de 6:30PM a 7:30PM en Zoom.. El enlace de la reunión virtual se comparte el mismo día del evento. Esta es una excelente manera para que las familias encuentren comunidad y apoyo mientras navegan criando niños con necesidades especiales.

Easterseals Joliet Region offers a great way to connect with other parents/ caregivers who are raising children with Autism. We have parent-parent connections with a new discussion topic each month. It is a great way for newly diagnosed families to ask seasoned families questions and find resources, no matter where you live. The group is free and open to the public.
