FOCUS began in 1983 when two children shared a
hospital room. The parents of these children became friends, finding
in each other someone to share the fears, isolation, and unbelievable
love they felt for their children with ongoing medical conditions.
FOCUS was established to care about the children
with special needs and their families. FOCUS maintains that caring even
as we now offer a variety of programs to over 2,500 families in metro
Atlanta.
FOCUS understands and
supports the unique needs of families with children who are
medically fragile or have significant developmental or physical
disabilities. FOCUS offers comfort, hope and information
to parents; accessible recreational and social programs for
children and teens; and fun, inclusive activities for the entire
family. A non-profit founded by parents in 1983, FOCUS
continues to embrace and strengthen metro Atlanta families.
