Family Network on Disabilities (FND) is a family-driven grassroots organization for persons with disabilities and their families. FND was founded in 1985 by a group of parents of persons with disabilities who came together for mutual support and information-sharing.

OUR MISSION: striving for the complete integration and equality of people with disabilities in a society without barriers. FND serves all persons with all disabilities and believes that everyone has intrinsic value and the inherent right to respect, independence, knowledge, freedom of choice, inclusion, quality of life, success, and equality. Family Network on Disabilities operates the following programs across Florida: Parent Education Network (PEN), Parent Support Network (PSN), Parents Offering Parents Information and Networking (POPIN), and Family STAR: are all programs designed to ensure that parents of children with the full range of disabilities and mental health challenges have the training and information they need to prepare their children for school and be able to lead productive, independent lives to the fullest extent possible. These programs offer free help and information to families of students with disabilities and the professionals that serve them.
