Getting Organized: Kid in a Book (Teen and Adult in a Book)

GETTING ORGANIZED:

KID IN A BOOK

(TEEN and ADULT IN A BOOK)

The Family Resource Network will demonstrate a helpful tool for organizing records for your loved one with a disability.  Kid in a Book (KIB) is a hands-on workshop where we will guide participants through the process of organizing for their loved ones’:

• health records
• education records
• other important papers and documents of a loved one with special needs.

KIB is an invaluable resource for many parents, providing easy access to all of your loved one’s information for medical appointments, CPSE and CSE meetings, parent-teacher conferences, and everyday reference.

Teen in a Book contains the same information as Kid in a Book plus pages to help teens and parents navigate the transition years with a little more confidence, comfort, and ease — helping your loved one enter into the adult world effectively, armed with the information to be their own advocate.

In-person participants will receive their choice of  a Kid in a Book binder, or Teen in a Book binder, or an Adult in a Book binder.  Online participants will receive a digital file of their choice of binders.

This workshop will be presented by Robin Piefer, Pattie Kinter, and Terry DiLuzio from the Family Resource Network.
