Learning to Regulate, Connect & Support!

Last week, Robert, Landy, and Megan continued their Emotional Regulation Training with 2, 4, 6, 8 Regulate!

Theyโ€™re learning valuable strategies and gaining new tools to bring back and share with our team. We love seeing our staff continue to grow, learn, and find new ways to support the people we serve!

Great things are happening when we invest in learning together! ๐Ÿ’š

๐Ÿ’š Growing Together: Navigating Family Life & Supporting a Child with Special Needs ๐Ÿ’š

We had a wonderful time at our recent Parent Meeting, where families came together to learn, connect, and support one another.

We were honored to welcome Jessika Boles, PhD, CCLS, Assistant Professor at Vanderbilt Universityโ€™s Department of Psychology and Human Development, as our presenter. Dr. Boles shared valuable insights during her presentation, โ€œGrowing Together: Navigating Family Life and a Child with Special Needs.โ€

The meeting provided an opportunity for families to gain helpful tools, hear new perspectives, ask questions, and connect with others who understand the unique joys and challenges of navigating family life and disability.

Thank you to Dr. Boles for sharing her expertise and to all of the families who joined us and helped make this meeting so meaningful! ๐Ÿ’š

Weโ€™re grateful for opportunities like these that bring families together, strengthen connections, and help us continue growing together. ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š
