Everybody gets by with a little help from their friends but for developmentally disabled adults, it can be difficult to even make friends.
That’s why a local group is holding a workshop on Saturday to help families support and enhance friendship opportunities for adult children who experience the challenges related to having a disability.
“We all are healthier and do better in life when you have friends,” said Circle of Friends workshop facilitator Denise Lawson of the Family Support Institute.
