As Fathers of special needs children, much of our time is spent busily supporting the family, going to or attentively finding out how doctor's appointments went, advocating for our kid(s), and simply doing our level headed best to keep it all above water.  It's helpful to know we're not the only ones out there, to have a few peers to connect with, and perhaps learn from each other's experiences as we do everything we can to help our kids and family cope with their unique challenge(s). A local Me …

This group is strictly for DC residents in long-term relationships with no kids. The reason for making it so specific is so members actually come out to events. This group is all about connecting couples that can actually get together  (not hindered by a long commute into DC from the suburbs or by kids). And our experience is that DC residents are 100% more likely than non-DC residents to come out to events. Also, this group is about connecting people in more of a meet and greet atmosphere (happ …
