Support for Grandparents Raising Grandchildren
Welcome, Grandparents and Kinship Caregivers
Raising a grandchild or stepping in as a kinship caregiver is an act of deep love—and it often comes with questions, challenges, and the need for strong support. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone.
The Federation for Children with Special Needs is here to help you access the information, guidance, and community resources you need. Whether you’re seeking help understanding special education, connecting with services, or finding emotional and practical support, we are here to walk alongside you.
Explore the tools, workshops, and connections available through our Grandparents Raising Grandchildren initiative. We are honored to partner with you as you support the children in your care and build a strong foundation for their wellbeing and success.
Need some support?
The Grandparents Raising Grandchildren Commission supports families that are headed by grandparents. The Federation works with the commission, providing information related to special education. The commission also oversees locally-based programs designed to support these wonderful families.
