This workshop is for self-advocates, family members, support coordinators, providers, early intervention and health care providers, family groups, planners, teachers, recreation programs, state/county staff and general community.
Participants will learn about the “LifeCourse Framework” and the roles we hold in our day-to-day lives to support individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. This interactive, hands-on workshop will explore the effect of past and current policies and practices of the disability service system on available supports; highlight the significant role families’ play across a family member’s lifespan, and real life examples and strategies that can be used to impact the trajectory towards a “good life”. Admission and materials are free; however, there is a cost for lunch ($10 per person). Contact Robyn Peyton, rpeyton@ddrb.org for details.
