Strengthen Family Bonds this Summer

Inclusive Summertime Activities & Back-to-School Prep

Strengthen Family Bonds this July Our July Toolkit focus is on strengthening family bonds, inclusive summer activities, and back-to-school prep; additionally, we'll continue emphasizing COVID-19 vaccination information and general COVID-19 support. Our policy resources include information regarding the reopening of schools and rights for students, as well as long-term care serving people with intellectual disabilities.  Did you know: When transitioning to a new school, early visits can be especially helpful to adjust to a new environment. The middle school transition can be especially challenging because students may be doing many things for the first time – switching classes, using lockers, changing into gym uniforms, riding buses, and negotiating big or crowded hallways.
