The Stress of Caring for a Child with a Disability: Strategies for Stress Reduction
March 11 @ 2:00 pm - 2:30 pm
Event Navigation
This workshop will share strategies to help you say what you need to say, and do what you need to do in order to find, apply for and obtain what is needed for your family member with a disability and for your whole family as well. When your child was diagnosed with a disability the roller coaster journey began with terminology you might not have known, systems and services that were new to you and sometimes, a competition to get them for your child and family. We all have different strengths and abilities. Advocating to obtain what is important for your child and family is always critically important during this journey. Join us as I share my 50+ years of advocacy strategies as well as welcoming you to share your own techniques of getting what is needed to support your child’s maximum growth and development.
