Michigan Parents of Children with Visual Impairments is an affiliate of the National Association of Parents of Children with Visual Impairments (NAPVI.) We strive to help families with support, information, advocacy, and events that are fun, educational, and practical. MPVI is a group of families, members of the blind community, and professionals who have or work with children who are blind or visually impaired.
Hemi-Kids is an email discussion group where parents of infants and children who have mild to moderate hemiplegia or hemiplegic cerebral palsy share information. In many ways, these children live a pretty typical life and often don't quite fit into the world of children who have disabilities. Yet, they don't quite fit into the typically developing world, either. The parents on Hemi-Kids understand the challenges of parenting a child with mild to moderate hemiplegia.
The Independent Living Club provides ongoing support for people with disabilities who live, or would like to live, independently . Members learn together and provide mutual encouragement and advice.
Forever Friends Network is a 24/7 support group for friends and families that have a child or a loved one on the Autism Spectrum. Our socials offer peer to peer support and parent to parent support. We truly understand the everyday struggles of Autism and how it affects your everyday life.
