SUMMARY:Watch: Implementing Dr. Ross Greene's "Collaborative Proactive Solutions Model" at Home
DESCRIPTION:Watch the recording for Implementing Dr. Ross Greene’s “Collaborative Proactive Solutions Model” at Home here.\nAre you trying to create an intentional family culture where your children feel empowered and you work TOGETHER to handle problems before you’re in the heat of the moment? Through the Collaborative Proactive Solutions (CPS) Model\, and looking at the work of Dr. Ross Greene\, we’ll examine how concerning behaviors that arise in a family are simply telling us that there are expectations that the children (or caregivers!) are having difficulty meeting. We’ll discuss how to shift our lens to one of lagging skills/unsolved problems and move towards collaboratively solving problems in a way that benefits both caregivers AND kids. \nPresenter: \nSara Wilkins – Sara is All Brains Belong’s Volunteer Coordinator and Facilitator of the Kid Connections program. She has her MA from the University of Vermont in English and Psychology and her Master’s in Business from Champlain College. Sara has been working with children and families in various capacities for the past 25 years. She has directed summer day camps\, run after school programs\, taught at several childcare centers\, and both taught at and held a leadership position in a Montessori school. Sara serves in the role of Lead Advocator for the state of Vermont on behalf of the non-profit Lives in the Balance.

SUMMARY:Watch: VFN Back to School Series - What Can the Section 504 Plan Provide for My Child with a Disability?
DESCRIPTION:Watch the recording for “What Can the Section 504 Plan Provide for My Child with a Disability?” here.\nUnder Vermont’s current special education eligibility rules that will remain in effect for another year\, some children with disabilities will not qualify for an IEP but will qualify for a Section 504 Plan. Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 can be a powerful tool. It requires that students with disabilities receive an education designed to their unique needs and is as adequate as the education provided to children without disabilities. Learn how to use Section 504 to get the services your child needs in school! \nPresenter: \nGreg Van Buiten\, Attorney\, EdLaw New England PLLC \n

SUMMARY:September Support Parent Training
DESCRIPTION:Vermont Family Network (VFN) is seeking Support Parent volunteers! If you are at a point in your parenting journey where you are ready to support another family\, please consider becoming a trained VFN Support Parent with our Parent Match Program. \nThrough a one-to-one “match\,” experienced Support Parents offer emotional support to families and assist them in finding information and resources. Over the years\, VFN has made hundreds of parent matches and we hear from parents again and again about how helpful it was to talk with another parent who has “been there.” \nThis month’s training will be delivered in 2 parts. In Part 1\, we will share our Power Point training slides (through email) along with a questionnaire that will ensure participant’s understanding of the material. Part 2 will involve joining a Support Parent Zoom gathering for discussion about the Parent Match process\, review of necessary skills\, and sharing of family stories. This gathering is scheduled for Tuesday\, September 27 from 6 to 8 p.m. \nInterested parents can complete this Survey Monkey application. \nAfter we receive your application\, Mindy will reach out begin the training process. Please email mindy.deibler@vtfn.org with any questions. \nWe appreciate your interest in VFN’s Parent Match Program!
