At just a few weeks old, Jessica Patay’s son Ryan was diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder called Prader-Willi syndrome, and shortly after his diagnosis, Jessica received a call from a mentor mom from the Prader-Willi California Foundation. In that moment, she knew she was not alone. Along her journey, Jessica learned how important it is to have support from other moms with special-needs children, and in 2017, Jessica founded We Are Brave Together, a non-profit organization that provides respite, community, inspiration, and mentoring for mothers caring for children of any age with disabilities, special needs, or other medical or mental health challenges. Jessica is passionate about serving and encouraging moms of special needs children everywhere and wants every mom to know “You are not alone.”
