FOCUS of Georgia: Sip and Share Virtual Meet-up

Support Groups, also called Share Groups, are the backbone of FOCUS, the first program ever offered. Share Groups meet monthly (September to May) in several different locations around metro Atlanta so parents can meet other parents and share tips, fears, and joys. Parent volunteers facilitate the groups, keeping them positive, constructive, and uplifting. This is a virtual share group and conducted through Zoom. 

To attend, you must be a parent/caregiver of a child/young adult with a physical and/or developmental disability, including rare genetic syndromes, cerebral palsy, autism, and Down syndrome. Learn more at https://focus-ga.org/event/sip-share-group-3/2025-04-11/.
