You shouldn't have to PAY to BELONG.

At UnPuzzled Parents Connect, one thing has remained at the heart of everything we do:

Our families should not have to pay to feel supported.

We know raising a child with a disability can already come with appointments, therapies, equipment, travel, missed work, and expenses that other families may never have to consider. We don't want cost to become one more barrier.

That's why we are committed to our Mission of FREE.

FREE advocacy and educational trainings.
FREE caregiver mental health and wellness opportunities.
FREE support and connection.
FREE sensory-friendly and inclusive family events.
FREE resources that help families navigate this journey.

When you see an UnPuzzled event, we want you to know that you can show up without wondering what it's going to cost your family. And we can only keep that promise because of the businesses, foundations, sponsors, donors, and community members who choose to stand behind our families.

They give so our families don't have to.

We’re Growing — and We’re Looking for additional Board Members!

UnPuzzled Parents Connect is now accepting applications for individuals interested in serving on our Board of Directors!

As our organization continues to grow, we’re looking for passionate, committed individuals who believe in our mission and want to play an active role in helping us continue to expand our impact.

Board membership is more than attending meetings. We’re looking for people who are ready to get involved by bringing their time, talents, experience, ideas, and community connections to the table.

Our Board members help with:
• Organizational leadership and growth
• Fundraising and sponsorship development
• Community partnerships and outreach
• Programs and events
• Advocacy and education
• Volunteering
• Helping guide the future of UnPuzzled Parents Connect

You don't have to be a parent or caregiver to apply. We're looking for people from a variety of backgrounds who share one thing: a genuine commitment to our mission and the families we serve.

If you’re ready to do more than support the mission from the sidelines and want to help us continue building what comes next, we’d love to hear from you! Click the link below to fill out the application:

Fun Fact: UnPuzzled started as a small support group (UnPuzzled Parents Connect Autism Support Group) out of Pleasants County. We've grown over the last several years and now offer 7 programs completely FREE to the families and community we serve. Share with a family or loved one who could also benefit from our programs!

What is Coffee & Connection?

Sometimes you don't need another appointment, training, or meeting. Sometimes you just need to sit down with people who get it.

Coffee & Connection is a FREE opportunity for parents and caregivers raising children with different abilities to come together, meet other families, share experiences, ask questions, find resources, or simply enjoy some time around people who understand.

There’s no agenda and no pressure to share. Come as you are.

And your favorite beverage? That’s on us! ☕ UnPuzzled Parents Connect covers a drink of your choice while you connect with other caregivers in your community. Join us at our next Wood County Coffee and Connection

Knowledge is power, especially when it comes to advocating for your child.

We are incredibly grateful to Christina Smith for leading another Knowledge Is Power Advocacy Training and helping parents better understand IEPs, 504 Plans, and how to advocate for the services and support their children need.

Trainings like these are imperative for families, and we are thankful for the opportunity to continue learning from Christina and her expertise.

A huge thank you to Maka Mia Pizza for sponsoring the evening and providing tons of pizza and food for our attendees to enjoy! Community support like this helps us continue providing these trainings at no cost to families.

Empowered parents create stronger advocates for their children.

We want to give a HUGE thank you to our volunteers who made yesterdays UnPuzzled Space Adventures so much fun! It takes a village to make events like this a success. Thank you for giving your time and heart to our kids! Thank you also to our friends at Waverly Activity Center for their help and allowing us to turn their school into a safe space where our families could gather, feel supported and have fun.
