Hello
Please fill in the on-line form.
For these events we ask that you fill in a very very brief on-line survey six weeks and twelve weeks after the program on how or if the program impacted your child, siblings, the parent(s) and the family.
We will not be collecting contact information for this brief survey.
Thank you.
Michael

What:
The Resilient Family
An educational event to introduce our Imagine Yourself program to parents and professionals.
Our programs are designed to assist children and families (educators, mental and medical health and other professionals) to practice relaxation and mindfulness skills. They are used to assist the parents, children, children with special needs, siblings and friends strengthen and deepen their ability to be mindful and relax.
Why?
We've had some very positive results for some children and families. All members of every family? No. However we've been very pleased at the feedback we've been given as have the families.
