Families United in Newtown was established in 2008 by Newtown residents Linda and Duane Jones with a dream of providing recreational programs and respite for families with special needs children. Following the tragic death of their son Tyler, the program blossomed with the support of Newtown High School National Honor Society students.
The first FUN gathering was held in October 2010, in memory of Tyler, and since then FUN has hosted regular events. FUN provides an outlet for families with special needs children and also promotes autism awareness.
