Advocacy & Relationship Management Resources
Effectively advocating for the needs of your child or loved one can be a huge challenge. Especially when it seems like you’re fighting battles on multiple fronts – with school, the NDIS, the health system and other service organisations. Without the right support and the skills to navigate each different system, you can soon feel overwhelmed by everything you need to do.
On this page you’ll find presentations I’ve delivered in the past focusing on advocacy and relationship management. I’ve also added links to posts I’ve written about advocacy, relationship management and our experiences trying to access the supports our kids have needed over the years.
If you have any questions about advocacy or relationship management (or if you just need a good old vent!), come over to the Inclusive Parenting Facebook page or send me an email.
