Parent Training Program

Comprehensive Training Program for parents & caregivers
with children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)

Research shows that parents with a child with ASD endure significantly elevated parenting stress than any other parent with a child with special needs, including terminally ill children. This daily, chronic stress can and will often lead to personal, family, and marital problems. What's more is that these problems have shown to negatively impact the quality of life for everyone in the immediate family.
So what can be done? Some of the main stressors which parents report are...
...I don't understand what my child wants,
...I don't know how to get my child to listen,
...I don't understand why my child does some of the things he/she does,
...I need to do everything for my child
...I'm upset that my child isn't interested in his/her siblings,
...I can't afford all the therapies (this is a big one!)

KGH is extremely proud to present a comprehensive and intensive parent training program that educates and empowers parents to be more successful with their child with ASD. This interactive course includes discussions that are specific to your child. Furthermore, numerous video examples will be shown to bring these difficult concepts to life in order to offer practical, hands-on support.

Our goal is to provide parents with information, support and confidence in order to decrease some of the main stressors of parenting a child with ASD. Doing this will help the quality of life for the entire family!
