SPIN is a resource group in partnership with Naperville Community Unit School District 203 whose purpose is to exchange ideas and information on treatments, therapies, equipment, legislation, funding, community resources and services to benefit special needs children. This is achieved through the knowledge base of the group itself and through informational speakers at our meetings. Our common goal is to enhance the quality of life and provide a diverse network of support for our special needs children and our families. Our group welcomes all interested persons at our meetings.
