*Do you have a friend, neighbor or colleague who has a teenager that would
like to learn how to care for children with disabilities and provide
respite care? Could you help me to get the word out to teens?*

*CARING TEENS WANTED!*

*CARING TEENS* is a day-long program that prepares teens to offer
first-rate care for children who have mild to moderate disabilities and/or
enter the field of special education some day.

Caring for a child with special needs can be a 24-hour-a-day job, with
limited downtime to take care of family matters, catch a movie or just
relax on the sofa. Parents of children with disabilities desperately need a
break to rest, relieve stress and get re-energized. Respite care for a
child with disabilities is something that every parent asks for, but few
ever get.

Unlike families of typical children, who can hire a neighborhood teenager
to baby-sit when they need a night out, respite care requires someone with
training and confidence to tend to the child's needs. *CARING TEENS* is an
interactive hands-on training especially designed for students aged 13 -19
(some exceptions made).

Training Topics include:
• Role and responsibility of the Respite Care Provider (specialized
babysitter)
• Disability information and awarenes
• Communication issue
• Behavior management
• Safety
• Seizures
• Assistive/adaptive equipment
• and much much more!
