Brain Integration Therapy Conference

September 9, 2008

Greetings!

I haven't posted with this group much, but have enjoyed reading the

posts over the past few years. As the father of six, two of which

are on the spectrum, our 9 year son with moderate to severe austim

and our 13 year old high functioning aspergers, this list has been a

great source of encouragement and information. So now it time for me

to hopefully contribute to the group. My wife Debbie and I have

formed a non-profit foundation to help special need children and

adults. Our foundation is less than two years old, but we have big

dreams and a large vision. You can read about it on our new website

One of our desires is to help educate parents and adults about

therapies that are helping special needs children, especially those

with autism.

Therefore, the Anchor of Hope Foundation, Inc is pleased to be

sponsoring the Brain Transformations I conference November 7 & 8 at

Dayspring Presbyterian Church in Forsyth, Georgia. This evidence-

based therapy improves executive functions and sensory integration in

both children and adults struggling with learning disabilities such

as Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, ADD/ADHD, TBI, CVA, Autism, PDD and CP. For

more information and registration, see their website

The instructors are Kennard Corlea Keeney. This is a hands

on workshop. You will be taught the techniques for this therapy,

then will practice them on a partner, then be observed by the

instructor or one of her trained assistants to be sure you are doing

them correctly. It is two solid days of training with something you

can carry back home and begin immediately to implement in you and/or

your child's life.

You can also email me directly and I will be glad to email you a

brochure, flyer or both. This is a great workshop for OT's, special

ed teachers, therapists, etc. We would appreciate any help in

getting this information in the schools in your area.

Thanks!

Steve Harbin
