Supporting Persons with Disabilities through the Holidays
While the holidays are approaching, we all know they bring up those memories for many of us, for some children and adults with disabilities, holidays signal an intense time of stress and distress. most of them feel left out during celebrations.
As we prepare o get together let's also think of persons with disabilities in the community and those at charity homes, Let's create good memories with them, share the little we have.
Many times extended families get together, and yet cousins or friends may not really understand the individual with the disability. It might be helpful for parents and everybody to support people with disabilities, organize events that will make them happy.
Prepare in advance to participate in the holiday traditions. Be creative. Think of ways you have made the holiday meaningful and consider ways your family member with a disability may be involved.
