Our purpose
The Mom2Mom Peer Support Helpline Program answers the need for help with adaptation.

An abundance of resources for children and adults with special needs are out there, offering everything from advocacy and education, to financial support. But what was missing from the equation was services that focused specifically on addressing the primary caregiver’s mental health and wellness. The well-being of moms was being largely overlooked. Not anymore.

What we do
The Mom2Mom helpline connects moms of special needs children and adults with moms of a similar circumstance who are specially trained in peer counseling and crisis support, making them uniquely qualified to offer relevant and realistic guidance, support.

When you call, email or connect through chat, one of our moms with talk with you, explore and assess your needs with you, and offer guidance and access to our professional provider network of resources that can help you, if additional help is needed.
