Community of Families
Every family has heard the proverb: “It takes a village to raise a child.” This is never more true than when raising a child with special needs. In fact, building this “village” is vital to the health and happiness of the entire special-needs family.
To address this need, the Community of Families was created to foster social relationships, encourage an inclusive environment, and to help all families cope with the ups and downs, joys and challenges of raising a child with special needs.
True to the mission of Jewish Family Service, we are always interested in building new relationships with the Greater Dallas community. Please call 972-437-9950 x340 to connect.
