Because every neshamaH is special.

We’re a caring community for families of children with special needs: support groups, resource guidance, and real-world training so you have clarity, confidence, and connection.

No parent should walk this path alone.

Special Neshamahs is a nonprofit community created by and for families of children with special needs. Our team helps families with children of different abilities to increase awareness, improve knowledge and understanding, provide resources, and tools to ultimately create a supportive community. Such resources can include access to parent training, therapists, information on treatments, legal avenues, and state resources. We also offer practical training on behavior and communication supports, and everyday tools that make home and school life more manageable.

Beyond information, we focus on connection: peer mentors who’ve “been there,” resource matching tailored to your child’s needs, and community events that celebrate big and small wins. We provide safe, moderated support groups where parents can share openly, learn from one another, and feel understood. We are inclusive, confidential, and family-first, meeting you exactly where you are, and walking alongside you so you feel supported, informed, and never alone.
