We believe in the fantastic power of gathering.
When you are in the presence of fellow Special Needs Moms, who “get you” with only a glance in the eyes,
it is comforting and transformative.

SoCal support groups will meet every other month: January, March, May, July, September, November.

A retreat is an opportunity for respite, rest and relaxation away from home, and away from the everyday world of motherhood. A time to connect with other Special Needs Moms and share stories, tears, laughter, and resources for self-care, family-care, and the Special Needs Journey.
We Are Brave Together aims to provide these retreats at low cost, thereby making them accessible for moms to have this much needed break.
Retreats will be planned each year; one in Southern California, one outside of California.

WABT General Retreats Policy and Procedures
Registration is directly through the website wearebravetogether.com.
WABT members will be notified via email and social media in advance when a retreat is open to sign up. Most likely registration will open 2-3 months in advance. Once the spots are filled, then a waitlist begins. Individual registration and payment are what secures each attendee’s spot. If an attendee cancels, then a spot opens for another person to attend.
Alumni Registration:
If you have attended a WABT retreat in the last year, we ask that you wait one day after the official registration date to sign up and receive an attendee spot.
Travel to/from Retreats:
Attendees are responsible for making their own travel arrangements to get to and from the retreat houses.
Roommates:
Roommates and bed assignments are RANDOM, unless an attendee specifies a roommate.
Cancellation Policy:
Cancellations made 30 days or more prior to the event will receive a 100% refund. Cancellations made between 29 and 15 days prior to the event will receive a 50% refund. Unfortunately, any cancellations made within 14 days prior to the event will not be refunded.
Collaboration with another mom/group in another city/state, will make rotating locations for retreats possible.
If you are interested in bringing a WABT Retreat to your city or region, please send an inquiry to wearebravetogether@gmail.com.
