Event Description
Description: This workshop will share strategies to help you model for parents what to say and actions to take in order to obtain needed programs, benefits, entitlements and services for their child with a disability. We will share possible barriers and strategies to hopefully help our families overcome those barriers so they can be the best possible advocates for their child and family. The session will allow participants to share their own advocacy victories as well as get feedback pertaining to current difficulties they might be encountering while trying to advocate on behalf of parents. It take more than a village these days, it takes a universe of dedicated advocates to help our vulnerable families.
Presenter: Gary Shulman, MS, Ed
