It's not too late! Virtual Summer Time Consultation Available!

Let's prepare summertime fun for the entire family! At the end of the school year, parents will find themselves without the additional support of teachers and other school personnel. When planning a fantastic summer, parents need to be aware of the resources available to them and create a plan for the summer months that will provide their child with the best possible care and support.

Parents should research and connect with local organizations and resources that can provide support for their special needs child. This may include summer camps, recreational activities, and other programs tailored to the needs of the child. They may also consider hiring a respite care provider or adopting help from connected family members to give them a necessary break from caregiving. Additionally, parents should make sure to create a schedule for their child that includes plenty of time for rest and relaxation.

Finally, families should take time to connect with their children and other family members. This could include family activities such as going to the beach, having a picnic, or playing games. Parents should also consider taking time for themselves to relax and recharge. Make the summer months a positive experience for everyone by taking advantage of the available resources.
