Parent to Parent of Pennsylvania supports the grassroots efforts of new and exisiting
groups. Many of our current regional coordinators have experience starting and running
support groups and are happy to share what they have learned. Our program can
support your efforts in the following ways:
We can survey families in our database for interest in your support group and mail
initial promotional materials.
We can meet with families to talk about how to promote a new group:
...help create a name that does not currently belong to another group
...help write and create promotional flier
...help secure a place to meet
...help write a press release to submit to the local newspaper
...help identify group objectives and activities
Introduce Pennsylvania Family Support Alliance and PA Parents and Caregivers
Resource Network as additional resources to consider for support group start-up
and on going assistance.
Help establish connections to a National Support Organization and learn how to
become a local or state affiliate chapter.
Provide trainings on confidentiality.
Assist in recommending speakers on disability-specific topics.
Our regional coordinators are happy to discuss your specific needs.
