Family Time at the MIND
About Our Events
The MIND Institute's Child Life Program organizes fun events that are free and open to everyone in the community. These events are designed for the whole family to enjoy and include activities that are suitable for kids with neurodevelopmental disabilities. Some of the events we've had in the past include movie nights, family game nights, trunk-or-treat events, and a family resource fair where you can find helpful resources.
We will notify families when registration opens on this page. You can find the registration information posted about 1 to 2 months before the event takes place. This way, you'll have plenty of time to secure your spot and join in on the fun!
Please follow us on Facebook and Instagram to stay informed about upcoming events.
