SPLASH

Coalition of Families with Special Needs

"Opening doors... for a brighter tomorrow."

Welcome to the Coalition of Familes with Special Needs web site. We are parents, grandparents, and caregivers united by our love and concern of a special needs individual.

Together we are dedicated to making a difference in our local community, state, and throughout the world. We believe that by touching the life of one person, we can change the world for generations to come.

The invisible disabilities are often the most difficult to diagnose. Why was CFSN organized? Our battles have been to obtain some of the simplest rights for our special needs loved ones. Adequate medical treatment, education, and dignity are often just beyond their reach. Too often the doors of opportunity and happiness are shut to them. Too often those that should be helping to fight the battle are over worked and underpaid. Too often family members stand by expecting the "establishment" to know what is best, and then to do it.

CFSN believes that we, as family members, are the strongest advocates that our loved one will ever have. No other agency or social worker understands the greatest needs, nor are they dedicated to this one individual as we are. Through education and training we can become a powerful tool in bringing effective change into their lives. We are, "Opening doors... For a brighter tomorrow!"

And so, we have united... We have each felt the same fear, sorrow, pain, and guilt, then marveled as it turned into understanding, joy, acceptance, and hope. We have each traveled different paths. We have been separated by fear and isolation, yet there is a single thread that runs through each of our lives and binds us together as a family: a special needs individual.

We are a strong force for good! Together we can "Change the world one person at a time!"
