I had a wonderful experience volunteering at my first Labeled & Loved retreat last year. Not knowing anyone, I didn’t know what to expect, but soon after arriving, I made some lovely acquaintances with other volunteers and participating moms. It reminded me of how important it is to have people around you that understand the challenges our moms face and support needed. Observing all these extraordinary moms come together, connect, & enjoy themselves brought so much joy to me. As a volunteer and a mom who had a child with disabilities, I’m very proud to be aligned with Labeled & Loved and look forward to the next retreat.

After years of longing for this kind of support myself, being able to give even a small piece of it to another mom has become part of my own healing. God has taken some of the hardest parts of my story and allowed them to become hope for someone else. There is something deeply meaningful about using my experience to help another mother find rest, encouragement, and the strength to keep going.

I love volunteering at L&L events. I go eager to love and encourage other moms and inevitably leave feeling loved and encouraged by them! We are all dealing with hard things and it is good to take a break from it, focus on others, and have a good time!

I am so thankful to be able to serve as a Labled Loved retreat volunteer. The weekend is filled with so many beautiful moments that fill your soul with joy. I love to listen to the countless stories of brokenness, beauty and bravery that these women share. I am inspired just being in their presence. It is so beautiful to see them all come together to inspire each other as well.

I found that volunteering with Labeled and Loved was one of the most powerful experiences for shifting my mind off myself and onto the needs of others. There is a unique joy that comes from serving these amazing moms. Their stories and strength remain with you long after the retreat.

Since Labeled and Loved’s very first retreat, I’ve watched moms arrive carrying more than anyone should carry alone — and by Sunday, walk out lighter- and surrounded by a community. That transformation, along – with all the fun and laughter I get to be a part of, is why I keep coming back.

As a mom of an adult child with special needs, volunteering with Labeled and Loved lets me give back to mothers in all stages of their special needs parenting journey. It’s heartwarming to watch these moms connect and heal. These retreats are a much needed respite for moms to be able to return home better equipped to face their unique family challenges.

Community Partnership Opportunities

Thank you for considering partnering with Labeled & Loved to serve special needs families. We are excited to work together to help the moms avoid caregiver burnout so she can better serve her family.
