Whether your child is newly attending school in kindergarten to grade 12 or you are looking for strategies to strengthen your child’s inclusion at school, this virtual session will help you understand your child’s rights, available supports, best practices, and practical approaches for working collaboratively with your child’s school team.
Together, we’ll explore how families can work collaboratively with educators, navigate common challenges, and advocate for meaningful inclusion to ensure their children have equitable opportunities to learn, belong, contribute, and build relationships alongside their peers.
Join us to gain practical information, resources, and opportunities to ask questions in a welcoming and supportive environment. This workshop is primarily tailored to families of children with intellectual disabilities but will share approaches and practices that are effective for all learners.
