Ensuring your child with disabilities is included in all aspects of community life can be challenging.

From schools to recreational activities, the lack of inclusive practices can be disappointing and can cause your child to have few choices.

It’s frustrating to see your child being left out, not given the same opportunities as their peers. 

The constant battle for inclusion can leave you feeling exhausted and alone, questioning if there’s a better way to advocate for your child’s rightful place in the community.

WE HAVE A SOLUTION:

Join us on August 1st at 11 am Mtn. Time (1 pm ET, 12 pm CT, 10 am PT) for a special Facebook Live session with Lisa Drennan, the founder of MERGE Inclusion Consulting. 

Lisa specializes in providing consultation, staff training, and systems implementation to community organizations dedicated to disability inclusion.

She will be speaking on a critical topic: "Advocating for All: Inclusion in Every Corner of the Community."

Lisa will share insights and tips for ensuring children and adults with disabilities are included in all aspects of community life.

We'll be live on our Facebook Page, The Art of Advocacy.
