PENGUINE – 2024

July 17, 2025

People with disabilities are the largest minority group and the only one that anyone can be a part of at any point in their life. Regardless of this, we have found that often they find it difficult to find appropriate support networks that can understand their unique circumstances

The fragmented nature of community-based knowledge poses challenges for parents with disabilities in locating information and establishing secure spaces to find and share information

We seek to support and bridge the gap between formal and informal support mechanisms and provide a safe space to freely discuss information not provided by doctors. 
Fostering a sense of belonging, understanding, support and addressing the information and representation gaps we have found in the landscape

Penguine is dedicated to providing a secure online space that nurtures connections, offers unwavering support, and shares valuable knowledge with parents facing disabilities. Our platform strives to create a community where individuals can find solace, empowerment, and a wealth of resources to navigate the challenges of parenting with disabilities. Through fostering understanding, empathy, and collaboration, Pinguine Network aims to be a beacon of hope and strength for all parents in similar circumstances
