All proceeds are used to enhance programming for our transition students who are working on the skills needed to become as independent as possible. Thanks for supporting us while allowing our students to work on valuable skills.

Our goal as parents is for our children to develop strong advocacy skills, across all settings. Take time to ask your child if they can name 2 people at school that they are comfortable reaching out to if they need help (teacher, case manager, principal, counselor, nurse, librarian, coach, receptionist, etc). Then ask them to name 2 people that they could ask for help if something occurred when they were out in the community, other than mom and dad, (neighbor, doctor, therapist, police, Family Support Specialist, etc). If your child cannot name 2 people at school that they trust and would be willing to talk to about getting help or 2 people to reach out to in the community to get assistance if needed, you might need to help them identify (suggest) some possible options. It is crucial for our children to display advocacy skills across environments in order for them to be as successful as possible in life. The first step is knowing who they can go to get the help needed.

Your Family Support Specialists are here for you!
