Description

Walking a Mile in Their Shoes: Helping Parents to a Better Understanding of Learning Challenges.

Through a Parent Reaching Out Grant, the Danforth CTI School Council, in partnership with the Integra Program of the Child Development Institute, is pleased to welcome staff, students, parents and neighbouring schools to a four-part workshop series exploring learning needs, challenges, and tools for supporting student success.

Workshop #2: Learning Disabilities and Mental Health

Many students struggle with learning; some have identified learning disabilities; all benefit from supportive and knowledgeable staff and caregivers. In this workshop, participants will gain an understanding of the relationship between learning disabilities and mental health. We will explore signs and indicators of anxiety and depression, and we will learn strategies to support good mental health.
