Parent Workshops

 

We believe that learning and growing must encompass not just the whole child, but the child’s whole life — and that includes parents and families. We try to engage parents with our Parent Education Workshops, held several times a year during evening hours. We discuss many topics important for the effective care, nurturing and development of children with disabilities.

Some of our past topics include:

  • iPads: apps and communication
  • functional communication skills
  • daily life skills
  • technology and adaptive equipment
  • behavioral support
  • resources in the community
  • transition planning and
  • sensory needs of children

"The Gengras Center makes sure to surround our children with so many wonderful, caring and capable people. That includes us "the parents" of course."
