for this meeting is Lydia Kang who is the Planning Booklet
Co-ordinator for the Family Support Institute of BC. Lydia will talk
about the booklet that she has created and how it can be used for your
individual. The idea of the booklet is to give a “snapshot”
introduction about your son/daughter – for eg their likes/dislikes,
what is important, how best to support, abilities/skills etc, using
pictures, illustrations and bullet points. It can then be used, for
example, to give to support workers or agencies that you might connect
with.
After a brief introduction about the booklet, we hope to have a
‘hands on’ session where family members (and their youth if attending)
can be guided to fill out individualized booklets. These can be used
in a variety of ways both for exploring and expanding your knowledge
and as a great tool for talking about your child to others
We are also available to share knowledge regarding summer options at this meeting.
As always, we are so glad to be able to hold the meetings at VRS.
Families are encouraged to bring their youth, who can sit in on the
meeting or ‘hang out’ with each other.
We end with a pizza lunch which gives families, who are our most
important resource, a chance to mingle and share. Please RSVP so we
can order enough food and please let us know if you are bringing a
youth that is graduating this year so we can celebrate together.
