Hi @JAB1 and welcome to the forums
It's wonderful that you're reaching out and wanting to create a support group, I hope that you can connect with some members here who can share in your experiences, I know that there are many here caring for children and teens experiencing mental health challenges.
I can see that you're looking for other to meet up with in in-person, but due to the anonymous nature of the forums, it might not be the right place for that sort of connection. You can check out our guidelines around anonymity here (the guidelines can be a bit hidden and easy to miss when you first sign up)
While we might not be able to facilitate organising face to face chats, you can certainly have some virtual ones on here if that's your cup of tea
