Is it easy to support kids? Rarely. Many of us have struggled to assist kids of all ages. When you add a disability to the mix, the challenges multiply. In this workshop, Cindy Kolbe shares helpful resources and valuable insights from moms across the country to navigate mental health, caregiving, medical care, access, education, and more! Cindy is a Reeve Foundation Peer Mentor for other moms. She wrote a blog and a book about what she learned from her teenager with a C6-7 spinal cord injury. During this workshop, Cindy will be joined by an amazing Chicago mom who will speak about her experiences with her child with quadriplegia, and there also will be time for audience members to share their advice. After the workshop, Cindy’s book will be available at a discount for anyone who would like a signed copy. “Hope is an incredibly powerful thing. And if you never give up? Hope wins.”
(Please note: This workshop takes into account that kids may be in attendance.)
