Can You Hear Me Now?
How to communicate with your professional teams about your concerns and your child’s needs.
Physicians, educators, therapists, and specialists all have unique styles of communication that you can learn about to add your voice to the conversation. We will talk about medical concerns, IEP and 504 accommodations, and how what happens at school affects you at home and vice versa. We will also talk about how to bring your concerns to the table in discussions so that the team or individual providers can agree on a course of action to benefit your child and your family.

Taming the Lion Without The Whip: Strategies to Deal with Oppositional, Defiant and Escalating Behaviors
We often get caught using negative and punishing techniques in dealing with children and students who are oppositional and defiant, as well as those who quickly escalate to aggressive and intrusive behavior. This workshop will explore more positive strategies in dealing with these children and how to better manage power struggles.
