If they live near Wrentham there is also a group called TACA that meets the

second Tues. of each month at 7:30 p.m. - They have speakers and parents gather

to speak with each other and get info. You can get more info from Cheryl:

Senior Center - 400 Taunton Street - Wrentham, MA 02093

They also have a referance library and if you go to their site they have live

chat with other parents.
