(TRI) will host a virtual workshop entitled: “Functional Skills Instruction and Strategies for Students with Special Needs” on July 15th from 9:30 – 10:30 am to provide guidance and information to parents of students with special needs regarding functional skills training.\n\nSchool closures across the state have upended special education\, creating an interruption in the leaning process for students with disabilities to adequately understand and practice functional skills.  This workshop is designed for parents to help them address this gap in their child’s educational process.\n\nTRI Special Education Advocates Karen Lynch and Jennifer O’Neill will present at the event and answer questions from attendees.   “Functional skills are those skills a student needs to live independently\,” says O’Neill. “An important goal of special education is for students to learn to achieve as much independence and autonomy as possible\,” she adds\, which applies to children with  emotional\, intellectual\, or physical disabilities.\n\nO’Neill and Lynch will provide information and guidance for families on how to effectively work with their children to help them learn basic functional skills for achieving self-awareness and independence.\n\nTo register for this Zoom event: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZ0kdOGorzwqG9O9yk5Z6Thc12Ysqh9vhLEU\n\nIf attendees require a Sign Language Interpreter to participate in this meeting\, please contact Karen Lynch by Thursday\, July 9 at 12noon: k.lynch@taconicresources.org  URL:https://taconicresources.org/event/special-education-workshop-functional-skills-instruction-strategies/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20200709T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20200709T090000 DTSTAMP:20260514T124822 CREATED:20200707T041127Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200708T070719Z UID:1634-1594281600-1594285200@taconicresources.org SUMMARY:Tea Time Meetup Caregiver Support Group DESCRIPTION:Every Thursday 12pm -1:00pm until July 30\, 2020 \nCaregiver support groups provide resources and information\, where participants can also form friendships and connect with others who are sharing similar experiences. \nTo Join the Zoom Meeting click HERE \nMeeting ID: 841 4528 5638 \nPassword: Tea123 \nOr CALL in: +1 646 876 9923 US (New York) \nMeeting ID: 841 4528 5638 \nPassword: 676511 URL:https://taconicresources.org/event/tea-time-meetup-caregiver-support-group/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20200630T143000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20200630T160000 DTSTAMP:20260514T124822 CREATED:20200628T020219Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200628T025028Z UID:1610-1593527400-1593532800@taconicresources.org SUMMARY:Government Programs Part II- How work and income affect your benefits DESCRIPTION:Discussing SSI\, SSDI and DAC or CDB (Child Disability Benefit) and how working\, receiving resources\, assets or multiple benefits can affect the benefit you receive.  Click here to contact organizer Mandi Sheraden.  Click here to access Government Programs Part II flyer.  Register in advance at https://calendly.com/cmaurillo \n  URL:https://taconicresources.org/event/govt-programs-part-ii-how-work-and-income-affect-your-benefits/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20200629T050000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20200629T053000 DTSTAMP:20260514T124822 CREATED:20200619T022013Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200619T022308Z UID:1548-1593406800-1593408600@taconicresources.org SUMMARY:Monday Morning Coffee Chats on Zoom DESCRIPTION:Disabilities Meetup Group on ZOOM \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMeets weekly Monday 9:00am-9:30 June 1\, 8\, 15\, 22\, 29 During this time of uncertainty\, it’s important for us to stay connected to our community\, and continue to have a social interaction.
