Executive Functioning: Spotting it and supporting it through a Neurodiversity framework w/Elise Wulff, Senior Program Manager at MGH Aspire
Join us for an insightful and practical workshop designed to help parents better understand and support their children through the lens of the Neurodiversity framework. We’ll explore how to talk to both neurotypical and neurodivergent children about individual differences in a respectful and empowering way.
This session will also focus on recognizing and addressing children’s organizational needs at different developmental stages. You'll come away with concrete strategies to help your child build independence and succeed with everyday responsibilities- whether it’s managing chores at home or tackling tasks out in the community.
