DIR®Floortime Parent Education Session

February 9, 2012

Kids Connect Therapy will be hosting a Parent Education Session about DIR/Floortime on Wednesday 21st of March at 7pm.

What is the DIR®Floortime Model?

The Developmental, Individual Difference, Relationship-based (DIR®Floortime) Model is a framework that helps clinicians, parents and educators conduct a comprehensive assessment and develop an intervention program tailored to the unique challenges and strengths of children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and other developmental challenges. The objectives of the DIR®/Floortime model are to build healthy foundations for social, emotional and intellectual capacities rather than focusing on skills isolated behaviours.

This session is open to interested parents, carers and teachers and will provide a broad outline of the DIR model and practical strategies to help you implement this at home. New families are strongly encouraged to attend.

Venue: 45 Vannan Drive, ASHWOOD.

Cost: $60 per family (FaHCSIA Funding can be used).
