Wisconsin Family Ties hosts several Family Fun Days statewide—for families that have children or adolescents with social, emotional, or behavioral challenges. Over 1000 children and family members attend these events.
And it’s not all fun and games; a lot of education and support is offered. Feedback from the families noted:
- 97% learned more about their child’s diagnosis, treatment options, and available community programs
- 97% feel they now have somewhere to turn when they need information and support
- 84% feel more able to cope with their situation
- 86% feel more hopeful about the future
