Webinar, April 13th, 2022, with the Arc of Greater Haverhill-Newburyport Family Support Center. Widening The Circle: Expanding Opportunities for Friendships Between People With and Without Disabilities. Parents often struggle with how to help their children with disabilities connect with their peers without disabilities.
* This workshop provides an opportunity to learn, network, and discover strategies to support inclusion, belonging, and friendship.
* There will be handouts to help parents be able to get their sons and daughters connected with others in deep and meaningful ways.
* Widening the Circle, which includes Pathways to Friendship, is a collaborative initiative on social inclusion between the Department of Developmental Services (DDS), The Arc of Massachusetts, and several organizations providing residential supports to persons served by DDS.
* The Pathways collaboration explores the benefits of relationships between people with disabilities and people without disabilities, and provides information about resources to help interested individuals engage in and sustain those relationships.
