In an emotionally charged conversation with Eric Jorgensen of True North Disability Planning, we venture deep into the heart of community and its indispensable role in special needs parenting. Through recounting her own journey with her daughter Elizabeth, born with a mitochondrial defect, Host Annette Hines unveils how community acted as their family lifeline, providing a shared belief system and collective elasticity to push forward. Eric, embodying his Navy ethos, emphasizes the value of a supportive community, a nurturing fixture that provides control and personalization, strikingly different from social media's impersonal landscape. Listen to a previous episode with Eric Jorgensen to learn about his own special needs parenting journey. Driven by our shared experiences, we're excited to introduce our latest venture - a membership-based community platform. This is more than just a gathering spot; it's a space designed to bring resources together, fostering inclusivity and support. In our discussion, we dissect the potential of a community-based platform and how it allows users to personalize their experience, connect on a more profound level, and access vital resources. We invite service representatives to engage in sincere Q&As, moving beyond sales pitches to provide meaningful insights to the community. To conclude, we extend an invitation to continue this enlightening conversation on Mighty Networks, our newly launched platform. It's a safe space to learn, share, and express ourselves as we navigate the challenging journey of special needs parenting together. As we embark on this transformative journey, we ask, "What does community mean to you?" We're eager to hear your thoughts, experiences, and insights as we work together to build a community that serves us all.
