CARES est un programme de groupe de sept semaines qui cible les défis sociaux, émotionnels et psychologiques qui peuvent survenir chez les fournisseurs de soins d'enfants ayant des besoins complexes.

TTN: ALL CAREGIVERS! REGISTRATION NOW OPEN!

The CARES Caregiver support program gives families a safe place to learn new skills, share, be heard, and connect in a way that fosters resiliency.

CARES is a seven-week group program to target the social, emotional, and psychological challenges that can arise among caregivers of children with complex needs. We help caregivers care for themselves because the more they show up for themselves, the more they can show their loved ones the way.

Les personnes aidantes jouent un rôle clé dans le soutien de la santé mentale des enfants autistes, qui vivent souvent des niveaux d’anxiété plus élevés que leurs pairs neurotypiques. Dans le cadre de cet atelier interactif, vous découvrirez des stratégies pratiques pour aider votre enfant à gérer son anxiété à la maison et au sein de la communauté. Vous apprendrez notamment à créer une boîte de bien-être personnalisée pour l’autorégulation. Nous explorerons également des facteurs de stress liés à l’école, comme le harcèlement, les transitions et l’importance de relations solides.
