Barbara Flis,
Parent Action for Healthy Kids began her career as a presenter by being a volunteer in her children's classroom. They are now 26 and 30. "Lower your expectations of parents," she said. "The perfect parent? It's an illusion." Her three-hour interactive presentation
We're In This Together was a series of exercises meant to help asthma-related staff engage with parents and school district officials in a more compassionate and empowering manner.
Her session's agenda for the morning:
- Re-framing our perceptions of parents
- Breaking down the barriers
- Tools and resources for authentic engagement
- Creating a plan and designing a program
