Does your child or youth have mental health concerns or a difficult time with reactions or behaviours? It can be hard to know how to work as a team with their daycare, school or community supports. This session will help you learn practical steps to help you get there, including:

  • building a support team
  • knowing what your child or youth needs
  • communication
  • preparing for meetings
  • following up on requests
  • setting them up for success!
