Meets quarterly via Microsoft Teams. Contact (319) 483-1375 to learn how to participate.

This support group provides a place for families of children with varying levels of specialized health care needs to meet, learn, support, share and grow together. The goal is to provide a safe and open-minded environment where families feel comfortable sharing their successes and disappointments.

Meetings range from an open discussion format to having guest presenters in to discuss their areas of expertise in the care of children with special needs.

Anyone who is a family member or care provider for a child with special health care needs is welcome.

Meets the third Thursday of each month from 1:30 to 3 p.m. in Carstensen-Gruben Room.
