Community Resources for Special Needs
Finding supports for children with special health care and learning needs can be daunting. In our session you will learn about programs and resources available both in your community and online to support your child's learning, behavioral, medical and recreational needs. Supports for your entire family will also be explored and attendees will receive a plethora of resources for their varied needs.
Cathy Roccia-Meier is the Family Education Coordinator, with the year’s Competence and Confidence: Partners in Policymaking Early Intervention and Family Leadership as well as Philadelphia's Families First program. A graduate of the Institute's traditional C2P2 program and parent to a young man on the autism spectrum, she has been active in local and state issues, including serving as chairperson for the Philadelphia Local Right to Education Task Force; a member of the Coalition of Philadelphia Special Education Advocates and serves on the Board for the Arc of Philadelphia and Autism Sharing and Parenting Inc.
C2P2 Family Leadership in Inclusive Education for Non-Traditional Schools is designed for families of students who are home schooled, educated in cyber charter schools, charter schools, private schools or parochial schools to offer leadership development training, guidance and technical assistance to help achieve true inclusion for children. The goal is to create a network of family leaders who will work together with educators and administrators to champion inclusive practices for children with disabilities in the Non-Traditional school community.
There is no charge for this event other than the $1 per person or $5 per family admission fee to the Back to School Fair.
Pre-registration for this workshop is required and can be done by following the prompts on the HAHA website.
