Our Story
If you are a parent of children within the community that have issues, you may feel alone. You may think that you are the only one who feels this way. You might even believe that no one else could understand your journey. But… You are not alone.
There are other parents out there walking this same journey and they would love to come alongside you. Today is the Day Inc., being a group that are either specifically for parents of children or invite parents to enter dialogue with other parents or family members, friends, and community. The people in this group would love to listen to your story, talk with you, cry with you, laugh with you, and share their lives with you. Most of the parents in this group are not counselors or psychologists; they are simply fellow parents or families on this journey. They don’t have all the answers. They may not have their theological positions all figured out. But these parents know what you are going through and want to help.
Today is the Day (TITD) support group of parents who come from all different backgrounds. They may not have the same views as you or feel the exact same way about this topic but they will listen and give advice with compassion and understanding. However, what our have in common is a desire to love their children and stay true to their self.
