DescriptionThis Workshop is designed for grandparents, aunts, uncles & other
extended family members of children with special needs/disabilities.

Join us for a morning workshop designed especially for grandparents, aunts, uncles, adult siblings & other ex- tended family members of children with special needs. This workshop is not for the parents of children with disabilities, but rather a way to provide support to grandparents and other extended family members.

This workshop is especially focused on Grandparents and other extended family members concerning their role in supporting a child between the ages of birth-age 8 with a disability in their family. We encourage other ex- tended family members such as aunts and uncles to attend as well.
