Expert resources are critical for neurodiverse families in Philly because they provide support systems, information, and services tailored to the specific needs of children. Having quality providers like behavioral therapists, inclusive activity groups, specialized medical care, and other resources nearby allows families raising neurodiverse kids to get the help they require and for their children to thrive holistically.

We accept nominations across all categories to help local parents like us navigate the countless choices we all have to make every day (see who’s on our 2024 Nominees List so far), but we’re making a special request for you to share the resources who have helped your neurodiverse family. We want to learn about YOUR experience with local neurodiversity advocates and resources who support those with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and learning differences, who support inclusion-focused services, accommodations, communication and assistive technologies, occupational training, and independent living support.

What Are The Philadelphia Family LOVE Awards & Family Favorites?

The annual Philadelphia Family LOVE Awards and Family Favorites recognize the BEST local resources for families, based on recent outstanding experiences and trusted recommendations from parents. Our Philly Family Community Facebook group has a reputation for helping parents find friends and trusted referrals and our LOVE Awards and Family Favorites elevates stories of great experiences. Winners and Favorites will be selected using a QUALITY OVER QUANTITY approach, meaning that each nomination is evaluated by a human looking for specific reasons why the recommended business or nonprofit should be recognized.

Nominations are open until Valentine’s Day. The Philadelphia Family team will recognize and connect LOVE Award Winners and Family Favorite Honorees in our annual Best for Families Guide and with special events including the Best for Families Celebration at the Radnor Valley County Club on May 23, 2024 as well as the LOVE Luncheon on June 5th at River House at Odette’s in New Hope.
