Parent Support Groups for Parents of LD Children

The inevitable challenges associated with parenting a learning disabled child may be rich opportunities for personal growth. We explore these opportunities in a structured, and supportive group environment. Participation in a parent support group provides three forms of support: 1) Time/space for reflection; 2) Supportive feedback from other parents who have had similar experiences; 3) Essential information (e.g., how do I set limits with my child, how can I support my child with her reading difficulties?). Parent support groups are semi-structured, with guided activities and time for focused conversation. Meetings are held on site or via Zoom.
