A Conversation About…..Executive Function

May 17, 2023 @ 6:15 pm - 7:15 pm

Executive function skills are an integral part of everyday life.  Whether task initiation, organization, working memory, or flexible thinking, these skills help to guide our actions.  Developing these skills takes practice and patience and are often challenging for neurodiverse individuals. We invite you to join us to expand your understanding of what these skills are and how they impact behavior, so you can better support the child/student in your life.

Register here. The Zoom link will be sent to you a few days before the presentation.
