How Do I Find Parent Support in Arizona for My Teen with Autism or ADHD?
Raising a teen is no easy feat. Raising a neurodivergent teen? Well, that’s leveling up to parenting mode: expert. There are milestones to celebrate, curveballs to manage, and approximately 18,000 questions to ask and answer. Through it all, you’re not alone.
At PS Academy Arizona, we’re more than just a school, we’re a community. Part of that community includes a special, top-secret (okay, not really that secret) Facebook group just for PS Academy parents.
So, we’re going to highlight why you might want to join us online and even throw in some extra resources because sometimes you need all the help you can get.
Where Can I Find Parent Support in Arizona for My Teen with Autism or ADHD?
Picture this: you finally found a space where you can share your teen’s latest win (even if that win is “they remembered to pack a snack!”) and everyone’s as excited as you! This Facebook group is just for PS families, which means you’ve got a built-in support system for parents who get it.
Here’s what you can expect:
Share the Wins: Big, small, or hilariously unexpected, we’ll celebrate them all.
Ask for Ideas: “Does anyone else’s teen refuse to wear socks… or is that just us?” (Spoiler: It’s not just you.)
Find Your People: It’s a safe space. No judgment, no awkwardness, just a whole lot of support.
We’d love for you to join the fun, so log in and join now.
