Help Beyond Our Campus

We know not every family can travel to our Chamblee campus—and that finding the right support can feel overwhelming. If you’re looking for special needs resources, referrals, or guidance in your own community, we’re here to help.


Our team is happy to connect families with trusted providers, advocacy organizations, and services across Metro Atlanta and beyond.
