I posted on a recent thread that I wanted to be involved in a group for parents of kids with behavioral and emotional disorders in real life. Well, I think I am going to attempt to start one at the agency I get my therapy through.
I talked to my therapist about it today and she is gung ho over the idea. Thinks I would be the perfect person for it. Obviously...lol. I have to convince the other powers that be though at the agency.
They have been talking about groups for 3 years now and nothing has gotten off the sounding board and I am sick of waiting for them to take action. I am willing to step up to the plate and take this on full force. All I need from them is a meeting space and a room in between times that I can use to hall in the laptop to download stuff and print it out.
I have no problem being the leader and talking to people. I want it to be a parent to parent support group.
The place I go to is called Community Innovations and I thought it would be cute to call this group "Parents Supporting Parents in Community Innovations".
I hope it would be ok if I copy some stuff from here such as the parent report, the outline of the Exceptional Child stuff from Easy Child, the form letters off the archives for Special Education.
