Dear members, I receive this request in mail and here I am sharing it with you. It might be useful to you or someone you know.

Here is the message:

Hello,

My name is Mildred Suarez-Milligan from Parent to Parent of NYS. Our non profit statewide organization is made up of parents of children with special needs and special health care needs. I work in the Metro area office serving all 5 boroughs.
In addition to information and referral, we have a parent matching program.

Our volunteer support parents are trained by us and they are matched with parents who need support from someone in their situation. We just got a call from an Urdu speaking parent of a child with PDD (high functioning Autism) who wants to speak to someone in her own language and who has a child with Autism.

Do you have any members who has a child with a disability who would like to volunteer to speak to other Urdu speaking parents? My telephone is 800-405-8818.

Thank you,
Mildred Suarez-Milligan
