Event Details

Start the year with a vision.
A vision for a healthy family.
Not just any family. Your family.
Too often, parents of children with disabilities are in the position of reacting. More than other parents, we deal with so many demands in a day: doctor appointments, private therapy appointments, IEP team meetings, and supporting our children at home along with the typical demands of being a parent. If you’re a working parent, top it all off with the demands of work. And what about your friends, your family….your spouse?
And where did health promotion go? Not illnesses like ear infections, colds, or flu. You know. The plans you had to take care of YOUR health and create family habits that promote health and healthy weight for the rest of your family?
Health promotion tends to be put on the sidelines as a separate thing to work on for yourself or teach your children.
Until it’s a "problem."
Whether you're thinking ahead or would like to begin to change the path, Joan can help. Learn how by attending this webinar. You'll leave inspired and with information to take a first step.
Joan, a parent of an adult with multiple disaiblities, offers a way of handling the many facets of life in a way to work on health promotion as well as all those other pieces of life. Without adding stress.
Join her for a free webinar, Create Your Vision of Health for 2012 for Your Family.
Stop reacting to the influences on your family.
Choose the direction you want to go.
