SUMMARY:NEW GROUP- Parent to Parent of NYS- Black\, Indigenous\, Person of Color (BIPOC) virtual Parent Group and learning series via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:Are you a BIPOC Parent of a child with special needs of any age? (BIPOC – Black\, Indigenous\, Person of Color) Like you\, I understand the realities of parenting our children with special needs while walking that tightrope of living on the margins struggling to be seen! Let’s address the high pressure reality on us as BIPOC parents so we may begin to re-energize ourselves\, re-focus on what’s most important\, and re-up our enthusiasm to increase our effectiveness in our roles. As we share our paths forward together\, the better off we will be for our journey ahead\, emotionally and physically\, and the better off our families will be. Join me\, Melanie Baker\, for an honest conversation as we consider where we have been\, where we are now\, so that we may see our way forward. \nREGISTER HERE.
