The LD/ADD Lecture Series and Support Group meets monthly on the SECOND Tuesday of the month from September through May at PHP. We offer two opportunities for parent/professional support and information each evening, a Parent Support Group immediately followed by a Lecture given by a local professional. You may come to one or both of the events. There is a fee for the Lecture, but the Support Group is free. We ask that you be prompt and allow time for registration before each event.
The new LD/ADD 2009-2010 program brochure has been mailed. The events will be included on our online Events calendar. (See lower right.)
Download the Brochure (PDF) if you need another or did not receive it.
6:10-7:15pm - Our regular Parent Support Group meetings provide an opportunity for parents to meet informally with experienced facilitators. The informal parent-to-parent meeting is to share ideas, experiences and information. Those who wish to share or simply listen are invited to attend. Being on time is very important so as not to disrupt the group and in order to give all attendees a chance to share their concerns. Note: Due to the early start of our Student Panel, there is no support meeting in March.
7:30-9:30pm - The LD/ADD Lecture Series sponsors a presentation by professionals speaking on a variety of subjects of interest to the group. New families and caregivers are always welcome as are professionals who support children and their families. In the 2009-2010 season we will be offering CEU credits through San Jose State University to those professionals interested in earning them through attendance at our Lecture Series.
There is no fee for the Parent Support Group that meets at 6:10 p.m. There is a $12 fee per lecture which can be paid at the door. PHP Members ($50 annual membership) may purchase the complete series of 9 lectures for $25.
PHP provides a forum for parents and professionals to get information. PHP does not promote or recommend any treatment, therapy, institution or professional.
