Family Life

A group of people posing for the cameraAt South Dakota Parent Connection, our vision is to be the “go-to” resource of choice for families when they need information or assistance in supporting the unique needs of their child and family. 

Helping families is at the heart of our work. Key to keeping that heart beating is an experienced staff, most often parents of children with special needs themselves, who provide caring and knowledgeable assistance to families from the very first contact, often at the time of diagnosis.

We serve families with children with all disabilities and special needs, whether emotional/behavioral, learning, physical, or mental health. No other organization in South Dakota offers such a broad range of services to families. We also work in partnership with a variety of organizations to coordinate and broaden the scope of assistance available to families.
