1. P2P - Dads

 
We have passed the three year mark for The Dad’s Place at Parent to Parent of NYS and I want to make sure we are meeting the needs of the group and that your opinions are heard. The Dad’s Place at Parent to Parent of NYS was set up for the fathers of children with a disability as a place for dad’s to find support and connecting. As we go forward I am wondering where our direction should be focused. Please help in improving our group by answering the questions below and providing comments. We appreciate your input.
