Strategies for Families of Children with Disabilities and their Peers, Communities, and Schools
Hosted by: Local Task Force on the Right to Education 21
In this presentation, participants will understand how they can make a difference in someone’s life by facilitating natural opportunities for friendship building. Participants will review the design and organization of the booklet, and discuss the 3 guiding principles:
1. Everyone has a role to play in the development of Friendships
2. Friendships are important to ALL
3. Everyone benefits when we support friendship development for kids.
We will also identify possible barriers to friendship development.
The booklet is available to view and download at www.pealcenter.org/inclusion
