Support Group Meeting – Live Webinar

April 23, 2026 @ 6:00 pm–7:00 pm

Inclusion isn’t a reward; it’s where your child belongs from the start. Yet many parents hear, “Your child will do better in special education.” In this interactive workshop, The Art of Advocating for Early Childhood Inclusion, you’ll discover what real inclusion looks like in preschool and early elementary, the benefits for all children, and how to challenge myths. Through stories, reflection, and practical tools, you’ll gain clarity and confidence to help your child grow alongside classmates.

Note: Approximately three weeks before the webinar, registrants will receive an email to confirm
receipt of their registration request and important instructions that should be viewed prior to the day of the session.

 Presenter(s):   Charmaine Thaner, Collaborative Special Education Advocacy
