Program Details
The world is changing ... again
As more opportunities and choices become available to move from remote, to hybrid, to in-person activities, parents are faced with new sets of decisions and transitions to manage.
For families where neurodiversity, learning differences, and special needs are central factors, change and uncertainty can be especially stressful and difficult, if not disruptive.
For some, even the prospect of planning what will be required to address what’s next can be daunting and anxiety provoking.
We want to help. So we created this program for you.
Join Us
For a candid discussion where you will learn practical steps that you can put in place to help your children, your family, and YOU as parents to stay on track as you create your family plan, while building resilience and flexibility.
Learn Tactical Strategies
Bringing their experience and perspectives supporting parent-parent, parent-child, and child-focused issues, our speakers will discuss tangible strategies to help you, your children, and your families make smoother transitions as more opportunities for in-person activities become available:
- Identify and manage stress and anxiety in the family from the upcoming waves of changes affecting how our children will engage with their schools, supports, extracurriculars, and social situations.
- Thrive in managing the complex executive function and logistical demands required when transitioning among remote to in-person and hybrid situations.
- Stay in-sync with each other so that you can make decisions together using better communications and problem solving strategies.
Your ability to stay aligned as parents while planning for the next phase of “normal” will be crucial to how your family navigates and experiences the transitions.
