The Social Impact of Covid-19 on Special Needs ChildrenWebinar, September 29th, 2020, 6 p.m, with the Brookine, MA, SEPAC. Since March, families have had to deal with many unexpected challenges due to COVID-19. With children now home for over five months, any demands and unknown situations can cause behavioral outbursts that are disruptive and frustrating.
* With what seems like constantly changing variables related to school reopening, the anxiety and stress for both parents and children only seems to be rising.
* It is integral that parents have the tools they need to anticipate and plan for transitions, new expectations, and unusual school experiences and social interactions.
* In this workshop, discuss parent-friendly proactive strategies to prevent and manage challenging behaviors and encourage the development of important life skills, such as self-advocacy, independence, and coping skills.
