Dear all,

Our team at H-CARDD has been hearing stories locally, provincially, nationally and internationally about communities coming together to support people with disabilities and their families. There are many great ways people are sharing information, and starting up innovative activities that help people to connect and support each other in new ways, as we all practice physical distancing.

Are you just going through the motions, moving from one day to the next, with your emotions set on numb, as if stagnant and stuck in the eye of the storm?

Are you ready to take back the reins of your life by stepping into the place of influence and authority you held before life-altering circumstances knocked you off your game?

Then hit like, leave a comment or send me a message so we can talk because ...

Submit your proposal for the Ontario Peer Development Initiative conference. All are welcome to submit a proposal, including those who will be first-time attendees.

Hi!

I'm curious if any health units/organizations have done some work around COVID-19 and mental health issues associated with it (ie. messaging, talking to your kids, workplace stress due to self isolation etc).

If so, feel free to message me or reply!

Thanks,

They are seeking evidence-based tools (e.g. intake or assessment forms) that can be used to assess the strengths/needs/wellness of family members, and that can ultimately be used to connect military families to community services and supports.
