“You Gotta Read This!” Book Discussion

October 7 @ 7:00 pm 8:00 pm

book discussion

Once a year, we select a book that we think the entire community could benefit from reading.  The challenge is to recruit people within your personal network to participate in a meaningful conversation about the Disability community while also increasing your own personal knowledge.  Once completing Everything No One Tells You About Parenting A Disabled Child, we think you’ll tell your family, friends, therapists, teachers, and allies that “You Gotta Read This!”  We see the potential impact of this community-wide initiative helping to increase awareness, acceptance, accessibility, and compassion for children in therapy and their families.

Everyone is invited to attend the free, LIVE discussion with this year’s author, Kelley Coleman on Monday, Oct. 7th from 7:00-8:00pm.  Signing up with this registration form helps us plan accordingly for our simultaneous in-person and online options.  For professionals, Early Intervention Continuing Education Credit is currently pending.

This book is an “honest, relatable, actionable roadmap to the practicalities of parenting a disabled child, featuring personal stories, expert interviews, and the foundational information parents need to know about topics including diagnosis, school, doctors, insurance, financial planning, disability rights, and what life looks like as a parent caregiver.”
