Webinar: From Research to Real Life-Increasing Visibility and Use of Family-to-Family Centers December 3, 2012-1pm (Mountain)
Call-in: 866/214-9397, Pin: 5058724774
Webinar Link: https://www.livemeeting.com/cc/familyvoices/join?id=24R5TP&role=attend
The Family Voices National Center for Family and Professional Partnerships is hosting this webinar presented by Suzanne M. Bronheim, PhD of Georgetown University Center for Child and Human Development. Suzanne will share findings from a 2010 research partnership with three Family-to-Family Health Information Centers (F2F HICs) to better understand how Hispanic/Latino families' and African American families' utilization of F2F HICs might be increased. This research project is based on a social marketing theory that suggests that people try new things if that "innovation" fits with their values and experience, seems to have an advantage over other approaches, is easy to use, can be tried and dropped if they don't like it and if others they know and trust are also aware of it and have used it. The project has used this framework to study how Hispanic/Latino and African American families prefer to receive information and how they view the F2F HICs as a resource. In addition, this project has studied similar issues for the social networks of families to learn how they view and access F2F HICs. Suzanne will be joined by staff of the F2F HICs that partnered in this project to share lessons learned and suggestions of how other F2F HICs can use this framework.

LD OnLine :: Online Safety for Children with LD - 0 views

All children are at risk for being bullied or harassed, but studies show that children with LD, ADHD, and emotional/behavioral disorders are more likely than their peers to be bullied or become bullies themselves (Snyder, 2003; HRSA, 2007). Many parents and teachers of children with disabilities are well aware of the potential for in-class bullying of kids seen as different and make efforts to stop bullying before it starts; but what about bullying and harassment that teachers and parents don't see? With young people's increasing presence online, much of the inappropriate behavior, language, and material they may come in contact with is beyond the immediate view of parents, teachers, and guardians.
