October MiNavigator Newsletter
For our October issue, we felt it was a good time to provide some professional guidance and interpretation for Michigan’s new Seclusion and Restraint legislation – being implemented across the state this school year. Many of you may not realize the impact of these new laws, but for some parents who have experienced previously unfair (and in some cases, unsafe) practices of seclusion and restraint against their own child, the significance of this educational reform cannot be understated.
AAoM’s September MiNavigator Newsletter
Well, September is upon us. It is back to school time, change of seasons, busier daily schedules and of course, more stress. This month, we feature Tracey Cohen, who shares her story (and love) of running and how this activity has provided her with a healthy outlet for the challenges she has faced living with autism. It is truly inspiring and we hope you will take some lessons from Tracey. Additionally, we are always conscious that the start of the school year is a good opportunity for families (and providers) to be thinking long term – planning for a child’s future, not just for this year, but even multiple years down the road, when he/she will become a young adult. We hope you will share the information with families, working together in this planning process. Happy September!
