From Scare to Support: How Our Community Protected Our Son

From Scare to Support: How Our Community Protected Our Son

If you are a devoted caregiver navigating the emotional and physical challenges of supporting a loved one with dementia or special needs, there is constant fear and worry about your loved one’s safety both within the home and the community.

In our latest podcast, I share a very personal story about a frightening incident involving our special needs son, Kevin. We learned quickly how fortunate we are to have such a highly trained, and dedicated law enforcement team in our community.

A big shout-out and thank you to the entire Sumter County Sheriff’s Department in Florida!

Not only is this story yet another reason The Villages is a great place for special needs families to live and thrive, but I hope it will raise awareness for our families and others to take proactive measures to ensure the safety of our most vulnerable loved ones.
