Who we are

We are a growing group of parents and caregivers who share, learn from, and support one another on our journey of parenting a child or teen who is Autistic, or has ADHD or other neurodevelopmental difference.


Why we meet

We are focused on learning about and using a neuroaffirming, developmental, relationship-based approach to raising our children, and what this means for everyday experiences like mealtimes, sleep, time together as a family, sibling relationships, making friends, and school. We explore these concepts as they relate to what we celebrate and struggle with as parents and caregivers. 


We offer a safe space to connect with others who truly understand your journey. Topics are participant-led. We sometimes host guest speakers. 


Join us!

There is no cost and no obligation to attend monthly. New parents are always welcome. To sign up, email info@ssmopenminds.org or call 705-253-1157.


For more information or to connect with a current member of the group about their experience, email info@ssmopenminds.org or call 705-253-1157.
