When Does it Take a Village? (with Jean Wetherilt)
When you have a child who needs help outside the sphere of your homeschool, how do you find answers to your questions of where, when, and how to get it? Information will be provided about how to choose a support group, how to find professionals who can help you to meet your child’s needs, and ways to access resources beyond the internet. Other topics to be discussed include accessing the church community and service projects.
