The network's members are parents of children with autism, Down syndrome and other disabilities who live in the Wimmera.
Two groups gathered together over two lunches in Horsham on Tuesday and Thursday.
Prior to their Thursday lunch, the members braved the cold and wind to take some time out with a morning walk together along the Wimmera River and through the Horsham Botanic Gardens
Various parent support groups meet regularly throughout the Wimmera during school terms.
The groups provide an opportunity for parents and guardians of children with a disability to connect with support and share information with each other.
Organisers said people wanting to learn more could contact Uniting on 5362 4000.
