Join us on November 29 at 12:15 pm for Carroll Families Conversations and Connections, a monthly Zoom series that connects parents and caregivers who can share ideas, resources, joys, and concerns. Facilitated by Barbara Duffy, a parent of a visually impaired son, our goal is to build strength, comradery, suggestions, solutions, and resources to help those in our care.

About Carroll Families
