The parents training program begins at Academy for Severe Handicaps and Autism and so has the academic year 2018-19!
The academic year began in June and the children have adjusted well to their new classrooms and teachers. The setting of goals and Individual Education Plan (IEP) meetings are underway and it has been a very busy month!
We have identified the 60 parents in need of training and the first meeting has been completed to understand the needs of the family and the topics to be covered. The first session was initiated by our Director, Mrs. Jayashree Ramesh and it was interesting and productive. The parents were divided into groups and asked to list out their concerns and topics they would like to be addressed. Both the moms and dads shared their interests and requirements. From their response, our calendar is really full! In the following months, they will be trained by different resource persons on various aspects of management.
The next step will be to confirm the resource persons required for the training and prepare the training materials.
Your help has made all the difference! I thank all the donors who have helped us raise this substantial amount and we look forward to your support.
