The Ann Arbor Parent Advisory Committee for Special Education is presenting a free workshop for Ann Arbor parents, staff and caregivers on Thursday, Dec. 3.

“Helping Your Child Get Along in the World: Strategies for Social Success” will be presented from 7-9 p.m.at Skyline High School auditorium, 2552 N. Maple Road.

Judith Coucouvanis, a psychiatric nurse practitioner with the University of Michigan Department of Psychiatry-Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry is the featured speaker for this presentation.

Navigating the social environment can be challenging for any child. These challenges are even greater for children with special needs, such as cognitive or communication impairments, according to information from the AAPAC. This presentation offers information about teaching social skills to all children, especially those with special needs.
