Please join us Tuesday, September 8, 2020 at 5:00pm Eastern Time (New York) with Rettsyndrome.org and a panel of creative experienced parents who are ready to share their Rett Life Hacks, especially how to plan and execute inclusive and enjoyable dress-up and gift-giving celebrations for the whole family such as birthday parties, Halloween, school field trips and the upcoming holidays. “Life Hacks” are simple and clever tips and techniques for accomplishing tasks more easily and efficiently, overcoming many of our common Rett-life frustrations in simple and deliciously clever ways.
Rett syndrome is a complex disorder, and sharing accurate information is more than empowering, it can be life-altering for everyone. Join this webinar to learn how a little creativity and out-of-the-box thinking can expand everyone’s horizons!
With this in mind, what’s on your mind? Register now and submit your questions and thoughts. Those submitted in advance will be addressed, and there will be plenty of time for write-in questions during the session.
Please join us Wednesday, September 9th at 4:00pm Pacific Time with Theresa Bartolotta, PhD, CCC-SLP and Bethany Stanley, MS, CCC-SLP as they provide Northwest Rett Syndrome families, educators and therapists an understanding of how to enhance communication in individuals with Rett syndrome.
Theresa Bartolotta, PhD, CCC-SLP will present an overview of the recently released Rett Syndrome Communication Guidelines and discuss how families can use the valuable tool to engage providers in using evidence-based strategies to assess and improve communication in Rett syndrome.
Bethany Stanley, MS, CCC-SLP will provide an in-depth explanation of how Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) can be used, with all types of communicators, to establish or advance communication skills in their family members.
