Tommie Forslund Workshop 2 Supporting Neorodiverse Parents and their young children: Research, Context & Evidence - Informed Practice
This workshops-will present contemporary research concerning caregiving, child development, contextual adversity and parenting support in families headed by neurodiverse parents. Drawing on longitudinal studies, observational research, interview studies, systematic reviews and intervention research, the workshop will examine both strengths and vulnerabilities within these families. Particular attention will be given to caregiving behaviour, child development and the substantial heterogeneity among both parents and children and the central role of contextual factors that influence caregiving and child development. The workshop will further discuss evidence-informed parenting support and the importance of accessible, relationship focused services for neurodiverse families. Throughout the day, the workshop will emphasise how professionals can support neurodiverse parents and their children, through approaches that are evidence informed, trauma aware, and sensitive to families' broader social contexts If you attend both Tommie Forslund workshops there is a discount but tickets must be purchased together Go to Tommie Forslund Both Days Workshop 1 & 2 link28 Jul 2026
