Upcoming Saturday Workshops at Including Kids in Humble

[Guest guest]

The end one about planning for wills/etc, the only workshop you have to pay for,

does NOT have child care unfortunately. But all the rest do for all your

children. Go to http://www.includingkids.org/ and click on Saturday Support.

Deadline for the one in April is this Friday.

SATURDAY SUPPORT SERVICES

Monthly workshops are presented to facilitate development of specific skills

that are vital to our children's success in the community. Workshop topics

focus on behavior, academics, social skills, self-help skills, communication,

and family support. A friend of InKids has generously provided a grant to

provide these services free of charge. Childcare for parents attending the

workshops is included in the grant. Registration is required. (see below)

SIB CLUB

Not forgetting our siblings of children with autism, we offer a once-a-month

support group for our school age siblings. This group provides siblings with a

group of peers who " get it. " Facilitators assist the children in sharing

feelings and experiences in an encouraging and positive format. The children

are able to bond with other children who understand both the ups and downs of

having a sibling with autism. This group is now provided free-of-charge during

Saturday Support Services! Children may still attend this group if they do not

have a parent attending the workshop. Registration is required. (see below)
