SUMMARY:Nurturing Parent Series
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Family Resource Network for our Nurturing Parenting Series: \nNurturing Skills for Families-A Strength Based Approach to Positive Parenting \nThe Family Resource Network will be offering a six session course presented by our team of credentialed Family Peer Advocates and trained facilitators. \nThe six session workshop will meet on the following dates from 5:00pm-7:00pm at the Family Resource Network located at 46 Oneida Street in Oneonta: \nWednesday\, October 16 \nWednesday\, October 23 \nWednesday\, October 30 \nWednesday\, November 6 \nWednesday\, November 13 \nWednesday\, November 20 \nThe Nurturing Parenting Programs are a family-centered trauma-informed initiative designed to build nurturing parenting skills as an alternative to abusive and neglecting parenting and child-rearing practices. The Nurturing Parenting Programs are designed to meet the family’s needs based on their parenting strengths and weaknesses. \nInstructors of the Nurturing Programs gather information from families in order to learn more about them. Our trained facilitators will tailor the sessions based on the initial assessment completed by each participant. Assessments will gather information about participants’ current life conditions\, their childhood\, their relationship with their partner\, their relationship with their children\, how much they already know about parenting\, and the beliefs they have about raising children. The Family Resource Network strongly encourages participants to complete this assessment prior to the first meeting if possible. \nWhat to expect if you participate in the Nurturing Parenting Series: \n\nThe Nurturing Programs are family based interventions where parents and their children learn similar knowledge and skills for improving the quality of their lives.\nBuilt in assessment strategies allow facilitators and parents to chart the course of their successes.\nThe flexibility within the structure of the programs allows facilitators to ensure the specific needs of families are being met.\nThe nurturing philosophy of non-violent parenting focuses on the development of empathy\, self-worth\, self-awareness\, empowerment\, discipline with dignity\, appropriate family roles and age-appropriate expectations of children’s development.\nThis six session course is geared towards families raising children from birth through 11 years old.\n\nTo find out more information or to register please call the Family Resource Network at 607-432-0001 and ask to speak with Barb Finkelstein.

SUMMARY:Workshop: Self-Care for the Caregiver
DESCRIPTION:Workshop: Self-Care for the Caregiver \n\nDo you think you are being selfish if you put your needs first?\nIs it frightening to think of your own needs?\nDo you have trouble asking for what you need?\n\n“I’m Fine\,” are words we often tell others when asked how we are. The fact of the matter is that we may not be fine. Caring for a loved one with special needs does not come with an easy button. Try as we might\, we cannot stop the impact of the needs of our loved ones. However\, there is a great deal that we can do to take responsibility for our own personal well-being and to get our own needs met so that we can better support our loved ones.   Deb Foster\, Massage Therapist\, and Joleane Robinson\, Wellness Advocate will partner for this workshop on simple techniques and strategies for preventing burnout while caring for our loved ones with special needs. \nDate: Wednesday\, November 6\, 2019 \nTime: 6:00pm to 8:00pm \nLocation: Norwich Family YMCA \n68-70 North Broad St. \nNorwich\, NY \nRegistration is required.  \nTo register by phone\, call Joleane at 432-0001. \nTo register online follow the link below: \nRegistration Form \n***This workshop is funded through a grant from the Office for People with Developmental Disabilities (OPWDD).  Self-directing families will need to add “Training Groups” to their budgets prior to attending. Please contact FRN for assistance adding this to your budget.*** \n

Temple’s achievements are remarkable because she was an autistic child. At age two she had no speech and all the signs of severe autism. Many hours of speech therapy\, and intensive teaching enabled Temple to learn speech. As a teenager\, life was hard with constant teasing. Mentoring by her high school science teacher and her aunt on her ranch in Arizona motivated Temple to study and pursue a career as a scientist and livestock equipment designer. \nDr. Temple Grandin obtained her B.A. at Franklin Pierce College in 1970. In 1974 she was employed as Livestock Editor for the Arizona Farmer Ranchman and also worked for Corral Industries on equipment design. In 1975 she earned her M.S. in Animal Science at Arizona State University for her work on the behavior of cattle in different squeeze chutes. Dr. Grandin was awarded her Ph.D in Animal Science from the University of Illinois in 1989 and is currently a Professor at Colorado State University. \n***This opportunity is funded through a grant from the Office for People with Developmental Disabilities. Priority will be given to the families of OPWDD-eligible individuals. Self-directing families will need to add “Autism Training” to their budgets prior to attending. Please contact Family Resource Network for assistance in adding this to your budget.***
