Donate
We are asking for donations to support High-Five Society and help us achieve our goal to secure our monthly social group for the rest of the year and to set the awesome additional programs we have planned into place. Our goal is to raise enough funds to have more community outreach events so that everyone can get together and be around other parents who simply “get it”. Donations from our generous supporters allow us to continue hosting monthly social events for the amazing neurodiverse population in Polk County, GA, and surrounding counties.

This role is ideal for those with experience in special education, therapy, or caregiving, or anyone passionate about inclusion.
Parent Support & Training Assistants

Assist with resources, answer questions, and create a welcoming space for parents to connect. This role is suited for individuals with experience in education, therapy, or parenting children with developmental disabilities.
Social Media & Marketing Volunteers
