Better Together Market provides resources for disabled adults and children

Organizer Tiffany Soto-Forhan says the focus of the market is to shed light on resources for disabled children and adults.

WARNER ROBINS, Ga. — Vendors and community members came together to do a little holiday shopping and raise awareness for a great cause.

The Better Together Middle Georgia Market happened Saturday at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 6605 in Warner Robins.

Tiffany Soto-Forhan organized the event and said her daughter, who has autism, inspired it.

She says the focus of the market is to shed light on resources for disabled children and adults.

“I wanted it to be for anybody. I was trying to get the Rec center here, unfortunately, they were unable to make it, but Happy Hour is here. They're for special needs adults. We have iStroll, it's a mom group that supports local moms. Ultimately, my goal is just to bring people together,” Soto-Forhan said.

More than 100 vendors showed up for people to do some shopping, but the market also had bounce houses, a food and toy drive, face painting and some other holiday fun like taking a photo with the Grinch.
