About this Discussion

Join a candid Lunch and Learn conversation with Peace at Home founder Ruth E. Freeman, LCSW as she interviews Peace At Home experts on the issues that matter most to parents. Jump in, ask questions, make comments and connect with other parents who are seeking answers to the tough questions. 

Supporting your child with special educational needs can feel confusing, overwhelming and sometimes impossible. While your child needs people who understand and support them, so do you.

This month Ruth explores these challenges with Peace at Home expert Andrea Brinnel, Ed.D., former Special Education Coordinator both at the school district and state levels in Connecticut.

Andrea will help you understand the nature of the Special Education process and how parents can be effective partners. Andrea will answer your questions on the spot and identify resources to help you along. 

Join other parents like yourself who understand your day-to-day experiences and gain skills to navigate the complex terrain of raising a child with special needs. You know it can be complicated, so don’t go it alone.
