Profile:

Have you recently learned that your child has a disability?

If you are a parent of a child with special needs. Face 2 Face is here to help. At Face 2 Face parents who have a child with a disability themselves have formed a network of friendship and support for other parents. Finding out that your child has a disability or special need is a very painful and traumatic experience for most parents. The shock and feeling of guilt, anxiety and isolation can be unbearable. This is where we can provide emotional support. All our befrienders are trained to enable them to give the best possible support to other parents. They remember how they had wanted to talk to someone who could understand what they were feeling at the time.

Research shows that parents really do benefit from the type of help a befriender can give.
