THE VILLAGE OF HARTS

Be part of an accepting community where you can share and learn and help your entire family reach their full potential.

Receiving an autism diagnosis can be overwhelming and scary and finding a support network is critical. That is why Raising Harts was founded — to be that support network for families throughout the South Shore of Massachusetts and beyond.

Candice Hartford, Founder of Raising Harts

Candice Hartford created Raising Harts so that families of Autistic children could make connections in a safe, non-judgmental environment. Our goal to build community, empower parents on this journey and create inclusive places where kids can just be themselves. 

  • "The most powerful tool that we all have is other parents. Other special needs parents are amazing because they have to be, they're the advocates. We have to help build each other up."
