SUMMARY:Lunch. Learn. Inspire.
DESCRIPTION:  \nJoin us and advocate Gary Shulman for one or all of our 2024 two hour sessions where you can share issues and challenges you’re facing as a parent or caregiver to someone with a developmental disability. Gary and our team will provide resource ideas\, stories\, empathy\, and connection with the other families present. It is a resource discussion with heart. \nThe substance of each session will come from the participants and will therefore have different content for each session. We will address questions and concerns from registrants\, then facilitate interactive discussions so both host and group participants can explore strategies\, options and possible solutions to the concerns raised. The goal is to give participants the tools needed to conquer current and future barriers confronting their family member with a developmental disability and their whole family. \nThese sessions are about hope. Nobody has a crystal ball foretelling the future so all we can do is empower ourselves with information and share inspiration for the best possible futures for our families. \n  \n\n					\n				Register Now
