SUMMARY:Reactive Behaviours
DESCRIPTION:SESSION INFO: « Back to all events\nSometimes our loved ones communicate their needs in ways that are hard to understand — through what we often call “reactive behaviors” or behaviors that challenge us. These might stem from things like sensory overload\, limited language\, anxiety\, or other unmet needs.  \nAs caregivers\, it can feel overwhelming — but you’re not alone. Join our bi-weekly Family Hangout where caregivers come together to share experiences\, support one another\, and explore tools and strategies that others have found helpful. These conversations are rooted in the belief that all behaviour has meaning and that\, as trusted adults\, we can model self-regulation\, adapt our environments\, and work toward meeting the needs behind the behaviour. \nThis call now brings together families from two former groups — Complex Behaviours and Non-Speaking Autism. We welcome all who are navigating this journey and want to learn and connect in a supportive\, non-judgmental space. Let’s come together\, listen\, share\, and build a more inclusive and compassionate path forward — one where everyone’s needs are understood and valued. \n  \nCLICK TO REGISTER\n  \nFamily Support Institute of BC (FSI) is a provincial not-for-profit society committed to supporting families who have a family member with a disability.

SUMMARY:DTC Webinar
DESCRIPTION:The Disability Tax Credit (DTC) is a non-refundable federal tax credit that can help reduce the amount of taxes owed by a person with a disability or someone who supports them. It is also a gateway benefit that gives access to the Canada Disability Benefit and RDSP.  \nAbout the webinar\nThe Disability Tax Credit (DTC) is a non-refundable federal tax credit that can help reduce the amount of taxes owed by a person with a disability or someone who supports them. It is also a gateway benefit that gives access to other programs such as the Canada Disability Benefit and the Registered Disability Savings Plan. \nThere are many ways that somebody can qualify for the DTC\, and we know that only about 16% of people who could be eligible for this credit are actually receiving it. This webinar was created with our partners at Disability Alliance BC (DABC) and aims to address some of the misconceptions about the DTC and provide people with the information they need to successfully apply. \nThis webinar will explain what the DTC is and how to make the best use of it\, and also includes information about eligibility criteria\, application tips\, and what happens after you apply. At the end of the webinar\, there is a 45 minute question and answer period with a DTC specialist. \nWhat’s covered: \n\nWhat the Disability Tax Credit (DTC) is\, and how much it is worth\nOther benefits of the DTC\, including the Canada Disability Benefit (CDB) and Registered Disability Savings Plan (RDSP)\nEligibility criteria\nHow to apply\, including top tips\nWhat happens after you submit the DTC application\n\nWho should attend \nThis webinar is for anyone who would like information and support around the DTC\, including disabled folks\, family members or support people\, and professionals. \nEligibility for the DTC is based on how your disability or condition affects your daily life\, rather than a diagnosis\, and so we encourage all folks who think they may experience restrictions to attend. \nCost \nThe webinar is free. There is no cost to attend. \nInformation for people who are deaf or hard of hearing \nThis webinar is accessible to people who are deaf or hard of hearing as long as person attending uses the Zoom app. The pre-recorded presentation has American Sign Language (ASL) and closed captions embedded into the video. For the introduction and live Q&A at the end\, we use Zoom’s automatic captioning function. If you require ASL for the full duration of the webinar or have other accessibility needs that we have not covered\, please reach out to us to let us know and we may be able to help. \nLocation \nThe webinar can be attended by computer from anywhere in Canada. All times are listed in Pacific Standard Time (PST). You will receive more information about how to access the webinar after you register. \nFacilitators \nCynthia Minh\, Disability Alliance BC \n  \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Reactive Behaviours
DESCRIPTION:SESSION INFO: « Back to all events\nSometimes our loved ones communicate their needs in ways that are hard to understand — through what we often call “reactive behaviors” or behaviors that challenge us. These might stem from things like sensory overload\, limited language\, anxiety\, or other unmet needs.  \nAs caregivers\, it can feel overwhelming — but you’re not alone. Join our bi-weekly Family Hangout where caregivers come together to share experiences\, support one another\, and explore tools and strategies that others have found helpful. These conversations are rooted in the belief that all behaviour has meaning and that\, as trusted adults\, we can model self-regulation\, adapt our environments\, and work toward meeting the needs behind the behaviour. \nThis call now brings together families from two former groups — Complex Behaviours and Non-Speaking Autism. We welcome all who are navigating this journey and want to learn and connect in a supportive\, non-judgmental space. Let’s come together\, listen\, share\, and build a more inclusive and compassionate path forward — one where everyone’s needs are understood and valued. \n  \nCLICK TO REGISTER\n  \nFamily Support Institute of BC (FSI) is a provincial not-for-profit society committed to supporting families who have a family member with a disability.

SUMMARY:Reactive Behaviours
DESCRIPTION:SESSION INFO: « Back to all events\nSometimes our loved ones communicate their needs in ways that are hard to understand — through what we often call “reactive behaviors” or behaviors that challenge us. These might stem from things like sensory overload\, limited language\, anxiety\, or other unmet needs.  \nAs caregivers\, it can feel overwhelming — but you’re not alone. Join our bi-weekly Family Hangout where caregivers come together to share experiences\, support one another\, and explore tools and strategies that others have found helpful. These conversations are rooted in the belief that all behaviour has meaning and that\, as trusted adults\, we can model self-regulation\, adapt our environments\, and work toward meeting the needs behind the behaviour. \nThis call now brings together families from two former groups — Complex Behaviours and Non-Speaking Autism. We welcome all who are navigating this journey and want to learn and connect in a supportive\, non-judgmental space. Let’s come together\, listen\, share\, and build a more inclusive and compassionate path forward — one where everyone’s needs are understood and valued. \n  \nCLICK TO REGISTER\n  \nFamily Support Institute of BC (FSI) is a provincial not-for-profit society committed to supporting families who have a family member with a disability.
