There are many different types of professionals who can offer support to children who are not following the expected pattern of development, the support is usually coordinated by the schools, SENCO (Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator). If a child starts school with a disability the SENCO will have been informed by the child’s parents prior to the child starting. The child may already be receiving support from a number of professionals. For example a child with a physical disability may well be receiving treatment from a physiotherapist, with exercises given to

Understand the legislation and policies that support the human rights and inclusion of individuals with learning disabilities.

As a parent, learning that your child has developmental disabilities can be a life altering moment in time and can cause a devastating chain reaction of events. These events have the potential to change family priorities and structure, hurt relationships, deplete financial savings and stability, and emotionally drain everyone intimately involved with you and your child. How do you find human services programs, agencies, or advocates, whose primary job is to help you provide everything your child needs? It certainly can be an overwhelming barrier, but it's the first step in giving you, your child, and your family a plan of action, goals, success, good mental health and bringing everyone back together.

The conditions set by Ontario Works & Ontario Disability Support Program are sufficient for daily livings. The outlines in the background for the development of this service are the process to date, and the suggested indicators.

When parents became stressed and overwhelmed by the burdening and demanding lifestyle of raising a child with disabilities, they lost sight of strong parent-child interactions (Guralnick, 2000). Moreover, the younger the child, the greater level of burdens the parent’s experienced (Aydin & Yamac, 2014). These burdens and demands that caused family-related stress are categorized by limitations and myriad challenges of the disability, financial strain on the family, time spent caring for the child, and changes in the family ritual (Guralnick, 2000; Parish & Cloud 2006; Schuck & Bucy, 1997). The child depended on the parent for 24/7 support of daily living tasks, with many of these responsibilities continuing through the adolescent and adult years (Tadema & Vlaskamp, 2009). All of these demands were taxing and overwhelming, often causing stress on the family. Yet how the parents coped and handled the demands of raising a child with disabilities defined how stressful their life were. When parents were not able to remain resilient to these stress-related factors, the outcome was detrimental to the child’s development. Studies showed that stress reduced parent-child interactions, social interactions, and a healthy and safe environment, all important to the child’s development and growth (Guralnick, 2000). Because researchers recognized the stress families endured, intervention programs were developed to support the child with disabilities and their family by

Support groups have evolved drastically to the point that participants are learning and teaching others about similar arguments and coping skills. These groups reinforce professional and non-professional procedures for the better good of the community, as well as providing individuality for certain groups of people. At the same time, participants are becoming intimated by society and the stigmas they place upon support groups. Although support groups might have some negative understanding from society, there are also benefits that overcome the public stigma, and helps the community and its civilians to disseminate information on research, treatment, resources, and methods of coping. With that in mind, support groups of any kind helps everyone in need.

This assignment will initially define and discuss the chosen service user groups of people with a physical disability and a young carer. Following this there will be a discussion on identifying the needs of the young carer and the person they care for, the range of roles the young carer might provide and the issues involved providing informal care support, the range of support available for both groups, and the role of policy and legislation.

When first hearing the word group, people normally picture about 5 people hanging out as friends but there are many different types of groups that we don’t even realize in our day to day lives. When I hear the word group I think of people who have the same beliefs or values. This definition when you think about it is far from correct, there are groups everywhere and they don’t always believe the same values. Groups can be very helpful in the human service field. There are many different types of groups in the human service field anywhere from groups of workers all working toward a common goal to a group of people who need to talk about the problems they are facing in life. No matter the different types of groups they all have a common

There comes a time in every child’s life when they become aware of who they are and question their place in the world, this is no different for a child with a disability. Most important is that every child has a safe environment to be able to express themselves without receiving judgement from adults.

If you live in an assisted living facility, you should consider joining or starting a walking group. Walking groups are groups that are composed of at least two or more individuals who get together on a weekly basis to walk together. They may walk at a specific location every week, or meet at different locations every week. A walking group can use walking sticks or trekking poles to keep them on their feet and moving. Here are the top five reasons why being a part of a walking group is great for you as you age.
