Ohana Vitality Center

A vibrant community gathering place that provides support, education and inspiration to families with children who have special needs and disabilities.

Parent Connections

Our parent programs consist of casual opportunities to connect with other parents navigating the special needs/disability world.

Family Gatherings

We love building community and invite you to join us to celebrate the uniqueness of our shared journeys.

Resources

We have found that other parents usually have the best advice! We are compiling a continually evolving list of parent-approved resources to cut through the confusion.
