Education Connection Program
Thank you to all of the Down Syndrome Specialists that attended the March 24th training session! Thank you also to Sandy Guntharp for her presentation on how to Separate the Challenge from the Behavior. All attendees should have received an email that included a survey link to evaluate the session. We appreciate your time to provide feedback to continue to improve this program!
