The Embracing Change Conference: Supporting ADHD and LD Across Life Transitions

Change is all around us and while we can’t anticipate everything that might come at us, there are transitions from one stage of life to another that we all recognize as foundational milestones across our lifespan. In those spaces, we grow into new roles and responsibilities, explore our talents and passions, and seek new understanding and connection.

When ADHD and LD are part of that evolution, the timelines and supports might be different, but the transitions, passions and hopes are the same. Let’s make it easier for ourselves and the ones we care about by looking ahead to what we can anticipate, prepare for and even dream about!

Register today for ADHD & LD insights, reframing and embracing change confidently!

When: Saturday, Oct. 17
Where: Courtyard by Marriott Calgary Airport Conference Centre
Cost: $30 - includes lunch! This is a subsidized cost because life is expensive.
For: Parents and caregivers, educators and instructors, adults and partners, colleagues and allies, and anyone who wants to learn more about and !

We hear from a lot of families who are on the FSCD waitlist. Share your experience!

CBC is investigating the experience of families on waitlists for the Family Support for Children with Disabilities (FSCD) program as well as families benefiting from FSCD supports here in Alberta.

This is an important opportunity to help build a clearer picture of how access to supports and barriers to access are affecting families, and to ensure these experiences are better understood.

If you are interested in sharing your experience with the CBC, we would encourage you to fill out the CBC's short survey: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfmMs0MBp0c2YLv2hnF-qhFIZ48RmCbYDLFh98z1lYkDYZSMg/viewform?usp=header
