SUMMARY:Friends Together:  The Parent Experience
DESCRIPTION:Step Into Their World: Friends Together – The Parent Experience\nThey say the Inclusive Fun Zone is where the magic happens… but why should the kids have all the fun? \nFor years\, you’ve seen the photos\, heard the stories\, and watched the incredible bonds form from the sidelines. On Saturday night\, February 28th\, we’re opening the doors for an exclusive\, adults-only evening designed to let you experience the heartbeat of our Charlotte community firsthand. \nThe Experience\nThis isn’t a seminar or a sit-down meeting. It’s a fast-paced\, high-energy “play date” for the grown-ups. Just like our Friends Together program\, you will be paired 1-1 with a fellow parent to navigate the Inclusive Fun Zone. \nWhether you are a parent of a Special Friend or a Teen Friend\, you’ll step into your child’s shoes to discover the “Pure Friendship” that defines our mission. You’ll tackle interactive challenges\, share some laughs\, and feel that unmistakable spark of connection that keeps our teens coming back week after week. \nWhy You Can’t Miss This\nWe know your Saturday nights are valuable. If you’re a parent of a Teen Friend\, think of this as your “social ROI.” You’ve seen your teen grow in empathy and responsibility—now come see the environment that makes it happen. It’s a chance to network\, relax\, and finally understand the “Why” behind the “Wow.”

SUMMARY:Parent Program - Exploring NavvyNest
DESCRIPTION:Join Ms. Sue and Friendship Circle Mom\, Cindy Belk\, for an educational afternoon exploring the new app for parents and caregivers of children with special needs\, NavvyNest. \nThe app brings thousands of developmental disability resources into one intuitive\, user-friendly system\, eliminating confusion\, saving time\, and reducing the anxiety families face when searching for support. \nNavvyNest was founded by Cindy and Timothy Belk\, parents of one of our very own Friendship Circle Friends. Like many families\, they experienced firsthand how overwhelming and fragmented the search for services and resources can be. \nTheir mission is simple: to make finding support easier\, faster\, and more accessible for every family navigating the special needs journey.

SUMMARY:Parents Night Out: Helping Our Young Adults Cope\, Connect\, and Thrive
DESCRIPTION:New Year\, New Growth. As we kick off the year\, we invite our Friendship Circle Parents to join our ZABS families along with other parents to an evening dedicated to the emotional well-being and future independence of our young adults. \nNavigating the transition to adulthood is complex. Finding mental health professionals who deeply understand the unique nuances of the I/DD community is even harder. That is why we are thrilled to welcome Michele Mattox\, LCSW of No Limits Counseling & Coaching to ZABS Place. \nMichele brings over 20 years of experience in direct care roles within the disability community. She moves beyond traditional therapy to focus on empowerment\, safety\, and tangible skill-building. \nIn this session\, we will explore: \nRelationship Coaching: How to help our young adults build healthy\, safe\, and meaningful social connections. \nLife Transitions: Strategies for navigating the shift toward greater independence. \nEmotional Wellness: Tools to support growth\, confidence\, and mental health specifically for neurodiverse individuals.
