What to Expect in a Caregiver Workshop
Supporting a child means supporting the people who are with them every day.
Our Caregiver & Family Workshops are designed to give parents, caregivers, and other members of a child’s support team practical information and strategies they can use during everyday routines.
Coming this fall
Make-It-and-Take-It Workshops
Learn it. Make it. Take it home and use it!
These hands-on workshops combine caregiver education with the opportunity to create practical tools and materials to use at home. Families may make visual supports, sensory tools, communication activities, fine motor materials, feeding supports, or other resources related to the workshop topic.
The goal is for families to leave with more than information—they’ll leave with strategies they understand and tools they can put into action right away.
Educational Workshops
Our educational workshops offer practical guidance on topics that commonly affect children and families. Therapists break information down into useful, everyday strategies and provide families with opportunities to ask questions and learn ways to support their child’s development at home and in the community.
Workshop Topics May Include
- Supporting speech and language development
- Understanding sensory needs and regulation
- Helping children become more independent
- Feeding and mealtime strategies
- Fine motor and handwriting development
- Early literacy and school readiness
