The IEP Form: One Page at a Time
This is not a SEED sponsored event. However we feel like this could be relevant to our community. This is a ZOOM training put on by Matrix Parents at the Marin Center for Independent Living. This is an introductory training on all the pages that are in an IEP. Find out more about Matrix Parents here: https://www.matrixparents.org

Caregiver Wellness - Preventing Burnout
This is not a SEED-sponsored event, but it’s one that we wanted to share with our community.
“Caregiving, for a loved one of any age, is often a 24/7 responsibility. Though it can be deeply meaningful, it can also be incredibly exhausting. Self-care isn’t selfish, it’s necessary in preventing burnout.
Join Renee Dahlke Zaloumis, LCSW, to learn how to support yourself through better sleep, nutrition, movement, social connection, and mindfulness. You deserve to feel well, too. Your mental and physical health directly affect your ability to help others, maintain relationships, and manage daily life.”
Event is free, but registration is required: https://www.lllcf.org/caregiverwellness
