Parents who have young children diagnosed with a developmental disability or special need may feel stressed and overwhelmed and experience grief, anger and disappointment. Making the Connection 0-3 (MTC-03) is a research-based intervention that allows parents to share their stories. Most importantly MTC-03 helps parents pleasurably connect with their children through music, playtime and stories.  MTC-03 is designed to strengthen the parent-child relationship. In 2019, The SJF purchased necessary training materials for this free workshop which benefitted 80 parents.
