ENVISAGE: ENabling VISion And Growing Expectations! Parents and caregivers, can you help with this?

From CanChild: Parenting is a tough task! Parenting a child whose development might be complicated by a disability can be even harder. We know that parents want to do a good job with their kids.

 

We also know that there can be a lot of extra stress and strain on parents as they work to do all the right things when their child has a disability.

We wish to engage with parents raising children with developmental challenges. We want to find out if our planned series of five weekly online interactive workshops, called ENVISAGE: ENabling VISion And Growing Expectations, is useable, understandable and acceptable to families of children with disabilities.

Our goals for this project are (i) to share with parents and caregivers some of the new and different ways we are thinking and talking about childhood 'disability', and (ii) to refine workshop content based on caregiver knowledge, experience, involvement and feedback.

We would love to know what you think!
