Saturday Working Chinese Carer Group

“We are a group of dedicated Chinese working mothers who are also carers of children with disabilities- brought together by shared experiences- resilience- and the deep love we have for our families. Juggling work- caregiving- and everyday life can be challenging- so we have created this group to support one another.

We meet on Saturdays- as our weekdays are filled with professional and caregiving responsibilities. Our time together is a chance to connect- share resources- offer emotional support- and simply be with others who truly understand.”

First Saturday of the month, 12pm - 2pm
