After the Diagnosis: Social/Emotional Disorders (Parent Support Group)

March 17, April 28, May 19, June 23, 5:30PM to 6:30PM. A Parent Support Group for families that have recently received a medical diagnosis for their child. This group will offer resources and guidance on “what to do next” and how to process your child’s diagnosis. Together, we’ll address the mixed emotions that often come with receiving a medical label. We’ll provide information that may be useful for the parent/caregiver as well as the whole family. The more the family understands the characteristics of your child’s diagnosis, the better the family can support the child. Click here to register. For more information please contact [email protected].
