When a family chooses an out-of-home placement, the need for connection doesn’t disappear. Parents, siblings, and extended family still want to stay meaningfully involved in the life of the child or adult with a disability who no longer lives at home. In this episode, we talk about ways to stay connected across distance, along with practical strategies and tools that can help families maintain strong, supportive relationships.

Share, Learn, Connect

Connect with a community that understands the realities of caregiving and believes no family should navigate disability alone. On our 1in6 Support Community Forum, you’ll find insight, empathy, and practical guidance from caregivers and advocates committed to lifting each other up and championing better support for every child and family.
