“Team Up for Your Child/Family Roadmap”
January 11, 2020 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm
Getting services for a child with behavioral health needs can be overwhelming. “Team Up for Your Child/Family Roadmap” is a step-by-step guide designed to help families navigate confusing service systems and work smarter with doctors, schools, agencies and insurers. When a child has serious behavioral health issues, you suddenly have a team of professionals in your life who provide a variety of services. This team could include doctors, therapists, health workers and teachers but remember that the coach of this team is you – the parent. You are the only one who takes care of the whole child. Learn how to identify your child’s strengths and needs, make sense of reports and evaluations, understand your child’s treatment plan, track your child’s progress and translate the Individualized Education Program. Curriculum manual and lunch is provided at no cost.
Presented by: Diane Bouffard, CPSP, and Rebecca Williamson, CPSP, Regional Parent Support Coordinators
When: Saturday, January 11, 2020 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Where: St. Mary’s, 99 Campus Ave, Lewiston, Maine
Note: This workshop is offered free of charge to parents, grandparents and guardians who are currently parenting a child with behavioral health needs. Lunch is provided. Space is limited to 18 people, so you must pre-register for this workshop. (Not available via webinar)
