CCS Family Connections
Empowering Caregivers and Families
Virtual Informational Workshops
CCS Family Connections will provide virtual informational workshops for CCS clients, parents, and families. These learning opportunities are meant to empower families and caregivers to get connected with community-based organizations. These workshops remind parents that they are not alone and there are other parents facing similar challenges.
The purpose of the virtual informational workshops is to ensure that families of children with any kind of disability or special health care need have the knowledge and support to make informed choices that enhance their own physical and mental health wellbeing as well as their children’s development.
We will have speakers from various community-based organizations to inform families of services, resources, and programs available to them in their communities. Participating Parents and Caregivers will be eligible for an opportunity drawing at event.
For more information, please call (909)-458-1629.
