🥰 "As parents, we want our children to have the same experience every child has. Your events support our children.

They also supports parents, knowing we are among people that understand neurodivergent children.

It makes a world of difference. No judgement, no pressure, and no need to provide excuses for behaviours.

At these events, we share. And we have that collective understanding to let our children be their neurodivergent selves."

💬 Nicholas is a CAN dad who brought his family to Taves Family Farms this past Easter long weekend.

It is an absolute joy to provide opportunities like these to CAN families! And we could not do it without groups like Taves Farms believing in what we do!

These twin brothers are CAN participants who have been selling baked goods & crafts outside their house starting this past April!

They've been donating half the proceeds so that more families can benefit from the same programs they access!

📍 Are you in Victoria? Find them on Grange Rd between Meadowview and Interurban!

The stand is open every Saturday from 9am til the baked goods sell out. Let's make sure this farm stand is cleaned out every weekend!
