SUMMARY:The Family Room with Sue Badeau
DESCRIPTION: National Family Support Technical Assistance Center \nA Family Room is often defined as an “informal gathering place for all family members” or “a comfortable space.” We hope you find that here. \nParents\, caregivers\, and family members asked us for an interactive meeting to discuss issues and challenges within their families\, feelings of isolation\, and desire for more connection and resources. They also wanted a space to “dig deeper” on topics. \nThe “Family Room” is that space where parents\, caregivers\, and family members actively engage in an interactive discussion with one another\, ask questions\, and also share their solutions in an informal setting. \nNFSTAC’s Family Room is back on April 18th from 4:00 to 5:00 PM EDT (3:00 pm – 4:00 PM CDT). Sue Badeau\, an author\, trainer\, speaker\, and family peer expert with lived experience as the parent of 22 children\, will host the series. \nLast month’s attendees suggested our April conversation starter\, so Sue will discuss how we can support career development for our young adults. From there\, the rest of the discussion is up to everyone in the meeting. We invite you to turn on your cameras and participate to maximize engagement. Registration is limited to ensure a more personalized experience. \nRegister here>>

SUMMARY:The Family Room with Sue Badeau
DESCRIPTION:National Federation of Families \nA Family Room is often defined as an “informal gathering place for all members of a family” or “a comfortable space.” \nThe “Family Room” is that space: parents\, caregivers\, and family members actively engage in an interactive discussion with one another\, ask questions\, and also share their solutions in an informal setting. \nNFSTAC’s Family Room is back May 16th from 4p EDT – 5p EDT. Your host for the series is Sue Badeau\, an author\, trainer\, speaker\, and family peer expert with lived experience as the parent of 22 children. \nOur May conversation starter was suggested by last month’s attendees\, so Sue will get us started on how to develop the skills or voice to ask for support or help – whether it’s you or your family member. From there\, the rest of the discussion is up to everyone in the meeting. We invite you to turn on your cameras and be part of the discussion to maximize engagement. Registration is limited to ensure a more personalized experience. \nRegister here>>
