UPHOLD:Understanding that Parents Have Options for Learning Disabilities
Do you have a child with a learning disability? Parenting a child with learning disabilities can be a lonely journey. It can sometimes feel like there are two worlds: the one other moms and dads inhabit, and the isolated and often frustrating one you live in. Do you feel you need an open, supportive, educational setting to share your experiences? UPHOLD offers the chance to help you overcome this sense of isolation.

UPHOLD is a group for anyone associated  with children who have learning disabilities. (There is no charge to attend these groups!)


UPHOLD (Little Rock) meets the third Tuesday of each month. The meetings begin at 7 p.m. at Little Rock Christian Academy. Click here for directions.

Parenting children with learning disabilities presents special challenges. The family faces many difficulties not only dealing with the child's everyday academic and associated social and emotional problems, but the struggle of living with a learning disability. Gain strength and encouragement by joining with others in UPHOLD: Understanding that Parents Have Options for Learning Disabilities. Together, we can learn better coping strategies and skill training while receiving the emotional support of other parents of children with learning disabilities.

WHAT UPHOLD OFFERS:
  • Discussions – a chance to share your own experiences.
  • Professional direction on current issues that relate to parenting and teaching children with learning disabilities.
  • Guest speakers
  • Books, Web sites, handouts and other resources that can help.
  • The opportunity to learn from others who have experienced similar situations.
