WIMS...Walking in My Shoes

ARE YOU THE PARENT/GUARDIAN OF A CHILD WITH A DEVELOPMENTAL DELAY?

HAS YOUR CHILD BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH A DEVELOPMENTAL / PHYSICAL DISABILITY?

WOULD YOU LIKE TO MEET OTHER PARENTS OF CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS?

WIMS IS A GROUP FOR PARENTS WHO COME TOGETHER FOR SUPPORT AND INFORMATION SHARING.

You are invited to attend a group get together once a month to meet parents who have similar concerns, experiences and feelings related to their child’s special needs.

At the group you will have the opportunity to meet, share information and learn about resources and processes from each other. A facilitator will be present to guide discussions and provide links to resources. There will be opportunities for guest speakers and family activities of interest at group members’ request.

For more information please call Janet Robinson at 613-841-1194 or email at wims_parents@hotmail.com.
