Whether they are an adult or child, funded or not, you have concerns to deal with and input to offer. We would like to hear yours.</p>
<p><strong>Together we can:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Discover how our community can better support our excpetional needs citizens</li>
<li>Find solutions to common concerns: finding respite workers, alternative schooling, community programs, etc.</li>
<li>Form a support net of parents/caregivers where we can share our experiences, support and advice.</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>Please contact Cheryl or Deb (both mothers of children with exceptional needs) @ 268-2506.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Why &#8220;Stone Soup&#8221;?</strong></p>
<p>There is a very old story of two monks who arrive at a village during a time of great famine. They have been traveling for days and are very hungry. They knock on the doors of the village houses but all the villagers say they don&#8217;t have anything to give - that they barely have enough food for themselves.</p>
<p>The young monk sits near the village well and tells the older monk that he thinks they and everyone else in the village will soon starve to death. The older, wise monk begins to build a fire. He asks the younger monk to find some nice round stones and to place them in the pot. Once the stones are found, he puts them in the pot and stirs and fusses over the pot.</p>
<p>The villagers become curious about what the monks are doing. When one bold child finally asks, the old monk says they are cooking &#8220;stone soup&#8221;, the best, most wonderful soup there is. The villagers want to know how to make soup from nothing so they begin to ask more questions.  The old monk mentions that certain ingredients make stone soup taste better - potatoes, carrots, etc. Gradually the villagers begin to offer what they have to add to the soup - a few potatoes from one, some cabbage from another. They find a larger pot, and all the villagers, one by one, add what they have, until finally there is enough for everyone.</p>
<p>All had something to offer and all were able to benefit from it. That was the magic of stone soup.
