Downs Syndrome Support Group -- And More!

STARS mom Jen Bonawitz has the UPs and DOWNS website, Ups and Downs and All Around -- you can find it here -- her daughter Vanessa is one of our STARS kids. The  Ups and Downs group is for Downs Syndrome but also for special needs in general. Please visit the website to learn more about this wonderful support group!

Special Needs Support Group

Support Group for Parents of Special Needs Children
meets at St. Matthew's RC Church at Cottman Ave & Battersby Streets in the Mayfair section of Philadelphia, PA.

 

[They also teach a Special Ed CCD class at St. Matt's church, so if you are interested, please contact them for info about that also  :)  Your child doesn't have to be a St. Matt's parishioner to attend their class, nor do you have to be Catholic. Highly recommended and they have helped other denominations before.]


Contact Deacon Bob & Angie Burns for more information here
or at 215-332-4842.

 

Other Resources via e-mail

Kim is on several e-mail lists and group networks, and while unable to attend seminars and events anymore, she does "pass along" information when she receives it. All STARS families who are part of the STARS e-mail list can receive these updates, which range from autism information to legislation alerts to general special needs seminars. There is too much information and training out there to keep a website updated on all of it.
