Here is an opportunity to experience all that is mentioned above... we invite you to join us for an informal relaxing chat. So who are we? Pam Kissoondyal, and Shelly Voelker: we are both professionals as well as parents of children with special needs so we have lots to share!

The Dad to Dad Man Cave chat (no women allowed)! Whether you were able to attend last year or not, please join Mark Keith and Tom Nurse. It will be RELAXING, and you will meet other dads. Mark and Tom come with professional backgrounds and are parents of children with special needs as well, so they have lots to share! We will also talk about experiences and concerns of interest to you.  Yes, this was the same event offered over the last couple of years. So do come again!
