HOME & COMMUNITY SUPPORTS
Thursday, April 16, 2015, 6:30 – 8:30 PM
Thayer Public Library,
798 Washington St., Braintree
Supporting children with special needs at home and in the
community can be extremely challenging for families. Unlike the school environment, everyday life doesn’t necessarily include structure, predictability and a knowledgeable/supportive community. Katy Shamitz, Founder & Director of Skills for Living, will be leading this workshop to provide useful strategies and resources for parents/guardians on ways to support their special needs child at home and in the community. Topics include successful strategies for activities of daily living, including building routines in the home, using visual supports and social stories, strategies for success in community outings, including teaching play/social skills and safety awareness.
