  • Transformational Change: Creating Meaningful Individual Service Plans (Macon)

    Middle Georgia State University 100 University Parkway, Macon, GA

    DBHDD, in partnership with Sangha Unity Network (SUN), will continue the work of Transformational Change through a series of interactive, one-day workshops focused on creating more meaningful Individual Service Plans using the new ISP template.

    These workshops are designed to support a shift in thinking about the ISP, from a required document to a person-centered tool that reflects the aspirations, strengths, preferences, and choices of each person receiving services. Participants will learn how to facilitate and develop ISPs that are grounded in person-centered engagement and aligned with the intent of the HCBS Settings Rule and NOW/COMP waivers.

    This event is hosted by Georgia Department of Behavoral Health and Developmental Disabilites and it will be located at both of the Clarence Brown Conference Center & the UGA Tifton Conference Center.

  • Parents of Special Needs

    Fellowship Bible Baptist Church 450 Dunbar Rd., Warner Robins, GA

    We are working with Kim Johnson of Exceedingly Me Technical Training and Job Readiness, Inc. to create a workshop for the dads and boys in the special needs community. This event will focus on some sensory friendly actitives that are stem related and hands-on because many of our boys and young men need those types of provisions to learn new activites. This event will also have a focus on teaching these boys and young men to put on a tie and learning some positive affirmations that will help build positive self esteem. All of these skills are needed as these boys and young men enter into the adult world and our community. This event is also for the dads and men in our community that are trying to parent a son or mentor a boy or young man with special needs. This event will allow them to focus on the able and not the label in order to build necessary skills as a boy or young man in this world.
