HOME & COMMUNITY SUPPORTS
Effective Strategies for Parents and Caregivers
Thursday, November 5, 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.

If you have any questions, please contact Suzanne Brouillard (SEPAC) at (978) 804-1323 or via email at suzanne.brouillard@analog.com

**PRIOR TO THE BEGINNING OF THIS WORKSHOP THERE WILL ALSO BE A DEMONSTRATION FOR PARTICIPANTS OF THE NORFOLK COUNTY SHERRIFF’S DEPARTMENT “SAFETY NET by LOJACK” PROGRAM for individuals who may wander.**

Like Brady, We're Back

It was a tremendous pleasure to walk the halls of BHS today and witness all of our students and teachers diligently at work. The school year has officially begun and we enjoyed a smooth opening which was possible through all the hard work of our teachers, custodians, and maintenance folks. As we finish necessary paperwork and make final tweaks to schedules, we look forward to next week and a true settling into the 2015-2016 school year. A reminder that our Back To School Night is September 24 and we hope to see you all then.
