Who
We are a team of researchers, clinicians and parent researchers in Canada and Australia. We have co-designed a series of workshops for service providers, called ENVISAGE-SP. Developed from our current family-directed ENVISAGE-FAMILIES program, the focus of ENVISAGE-SP is to introduce service providers to new ideas about health, development, parenting, family well-being, and ways to communicate and collaborate with families and colleagues.
Why
Our goals for this project are to share with service providers some of the new and different ways we are thinking and talking about childhood ‘disability’. The workshops have been developed in collaboration with parent leaders and service providers from Canada and Australia who are research partners in this project.
