Children Having Individual Learning Differences (C.H.I.L.D.) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit parent organization for the Verona school district. C.H.I.L.D. provides support to Verona children facing learning challenges. C.H.I.L.D. seeks to bridge the gap between general and special education through collaboration with parents, teachers, administrators and students and by providing education, information and support.
C.H.I.L.D. is unveiling three new support groups on Monday, October 27, at 7 p.m. at H.B. Whitehorne: The ADHD/ADD Parent Support Group, the Autism Parent Support Group, and the Dyslexia Parent Support Group. The purpose of these three groups is to create a safe space where parents can find support and also gather information from one another. Each meeting will have a topic of interest that will help guide the discussions.
The Dyslexia Support Group will screen the movie, “Embracing Dyslexia” during a portion of their meeting time. The Autism Support Group and the ADHD/ADD Support Group will also have their own presentation that evening.
