Owned and operated by autism, disability and rare disease families, The Connected Parent is the most trusted online parenting resource designed exclusively for disability & neurodivergent families to discover, review, and organize resources while connecting with other families on similar journeys. At its core, The Connected Parent empowers families to find the people and places that make their lives just a little bit easier.
The comprehensive search tool & disability-specific filters help families connect with all the resources they need in one place - from specialized schools, dentists that provide accommodations, inclusive summer camps, neurodiversity affirming therapists, and so much more. Families have the ability to receive notifications every time a new resource is added that matches what they're looking for, as well as easily save and share their favorites with fellow caregivers and parents. Through the searchable community directory, families can find and connect with other families who share similar interests or needs, serving as a lifeline for families seeking community, understanding, and support.
