Family Discipline

 

Past/current experiences working in the field of disabilities:


I currently work with families that are experiencing mental health crises with their children.  I assist them in finding and utilizing community resources.  Personally I have four children that  I have had to navigate one system or another for to be able to help them to be as successful as possible.


Goals for your LEND training experience:


I hope to be able to take away from this experience the ability to better advocate for the families I work with and to be able to  better teach them to advocate for themselves and their children.


What you wish to contribute, in the future, as a professional/family member in the field:


I wish to be able to pass along the knowledge I have gained to others through community service and leadership opportunities.
