Twins Plus Association of Brampton
The Twins Plus Association of Brampton is a self-help, not-for-profit support group for expectant parents, parents
and families of twins, triplets, or multiples living in Brampton, Caledon, Georgetown, Acton, Milton, Bolton, and Orangeville.
The Club was founded in Brampton and area in 1974, based on the local need to provide both parents and the community with support
and information about multiple births, be they twins, triplets, or more.
The Club strongly encourages all of our members to promote what we know - our lives - and using that rich experience to aid each
other in our pursuit of being the best parents that we can be.
Mission Statement
The Mission of the Twins Plus Association of Brampton is to provide moral, emotional and social support and
guidance to our members by sharing our mutual experiences as parents of multiple birth children of all ages.
We are a support group for parents and caregivers of multiples.
We consist of parents and expectant parents of multiples birth children of all ages who share our experiences as
parents with one another.
We provide an opportunity to meet with other multiple birth parents in an informal social setting.
We are a member chapter of Multiple Births Canada, a national organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for
multiple birth families in Canada.
