Parent Panel: Parenting a Child Who Struggles to Eat

Description

The Chicagoland Feeding Professional Development Group seeks to support therapists who are interested in helping children who struggle to eat, and supporting their families. Our February meeting will consist of a panel discussion of parents who have a child who has feeding struggles. Parental stress, management of family life, effectiveness of interventions, and the role of a feeding therapist are topics that will be explored throughout the discussion. Professionals who attend the discussion will be given the opportunity to ask questions of parents and connect with other professionals.
This meeting is open to all professionals and parents that are interested in feeding.
