These parenting education workshops are designed to help empower parents to be advocates for their child’s(ren’s) needs at home and at school. We live in a world where ableism creates the belief that if you can’t see it, then it’s not there. Children with atypical development such as ADHD, twice exceptionalism, learning disabilities, and giftedness come with varying degrees of difficulties in the realm of executive functioning. They’re constantly being pushed to be someone that their neurological makeup doesn’t align with. Their brains have unique gifts AND unique challenges. During this presentation, you will gain first-hand experience of what it is like be a child with atypical development and understand the “good” and the “bad” of their neurological makeup. And, of course, you will walk away with tools and strategies for both home and school!

Family Connections & Learning Center welcomes all ages from 6 months to the end of life. Our
team promotes safety, growth, and healing for families, couples, and individuals. We are unique
in that we offer wrap-around support services for people with atypical development such
as giftedness, learning disabilities, ADHD, executive delays, and many more.
Our co-founders, Casey Heinsch and Robyn Berry, created FCLC to promote a strong community
amongst the people they serve. Early on in their career together they saw a lack of support and
education for families who have atypical development. It became clear that many families
received academic and therapeutic support separate from each other, creating a significant gap
in socioemotional growth and academic achievement. FCLC strives to provide a strong
therapeutic and academic coaching team to assist people in creating wholeness in all areas of
their lives.
