UnPuzzled Parents Connect was founded on the belief that no parent or caregiver should feel alone in raising a child with special needs.
Our mission is simple yet powerful: to empower families and caregivers through education, connection, and advocacy. Whether through family-friendly events, workshops, or spaces for meaningful connections, we are committed to ensuring every family feels seen, heard, and supported.
What makes us unique is our deep understanding of the challenges families face—from navigating services to overcoming isolation. We’ve been there, and we’re here to help with practical tools and emotional support to make this journey more manageable and fulfilling.
UnPuzzled Parents Connect is more than a nonprofit—it’s a movement. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone. Together, we can connect, uplift, and inspire one another.
Member Testimonials
Our Expansion Project is focused on securing a permanent space for UnPuzzled Parents Connect. Right now, we’re hosting programs across borrowed spaces, churches, and community buildings—but families need a consistent home. This building will allow us to grow programs like The Listening Room, Knowledge is Power workshops, and respite care for families who desperately need a safe place to recharge. Having our own space means stability for families who already face constant uncertainty, and it gives us the foundation to serve more counties across West Virginia and the Mid-Ohio Valley. Every donation directly impacts this vision—your support helps create a welcoming place where families can find rest, resources, and connection when they need it most.

At UnPuzzled, we believe in community and compassion. We want all of our families to feel loved, seen, and included as well as feel safe sharing experiences in a judgement free space.

Our podcast was born from the desire to extend our support group’s reach—bringing encouragement, understanding, and community to all who listen. We’ve had amazing guests from Eileen Lamb, Kerry Magro, to local psychologists and therapists who shed light and strategies to succeed in this journey together. We hope you enjoy.
