Learn about Charting the LifeCourse (CtLC), a practical, family-centered framework for planning across the lifespan, in this free webinar series

Family Matters Parent Training and Information Center will host part six, “Building a Life Vision: In School and Beyond” on June 18. This series meets on the third Thursday of the month from 12 to 12:45 p.m.

The 12-session virtual series will introduce Charting the LifeCourse (CtLC), a practical, family-centered framework for planning across the lifespan. Each month, families, youth, and professionals will explore one key CtLC tool or concept through:

  • Short videos
  • Guided discussion
  • Examples of how families are using these tools to plan, connect and advocate for the life they want

There will also be time to network, share ideas and connect with others on similar journeys.

Anyone supporting students and young adults with disabilities is welcome to attend.
