You’re Not Alone:

Guidance & Hope for Parents of Extraordinary Kids

A Message From Our Leader

Raising a child with special needs is challenging. You need answers, resources, and fellow parents who understand. You’re in the right place if you’re looking for practical solutions and honest support.

Parent Strong is a place built by parents for parents. You will find a safe space to discuss what it’s like to parent kids with the toughest behaviors.

Are you parenting a child with any of these diagnoses?

  • Defiance and rebellion
  • Aggression
  • Attachment problems and Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD)
  • Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) and Conduct Disorder (CD)
  • Autism and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
  • Severe anything

You are not alone.

As a mom to 5 children (including two with intense behavioral needs), foster mom, and family advocate, I understand the struggles you face.

Here, we value honest, raw, truthful conversation…even when it hurts. This isn’t for experts who sit on couches. This is in-the-trenches parenting for kids who struggle to form meaningful relationships…and the families who love them.
