Sessions & Resources

Sessions & Resources that are available on the web, will be posted here. Topics will be around, but not limited to: becoming a more inclusive community, family and disability supports, inclusive education topics. There are some great practices occurring across Canada, and we hope to share them with you!!


Here's a great webinar about inclusive practises for the entire classrooms, and strategies to support students at different ages, and levels of support needed. 


Supporting positive student behavior can be a challenge for any teacher—and in an inclusive classroom, it can be especially difficult to manage students with so many different needs and ability levels in one room. Tune in to this webinar for expert help with addressing behavior challenges in your inclusive class!

Non-verbal learning disabilities (NLD), or non-verbal learning disorders are neurological syndromes that develop in the right side of the brain.
People with NLD have a very strong verbal ability, remarkable memory and spelling skills, and strong auditory retention; although they possess poor social skills and have difficulty understanding facial expression and body language. Many do not react well to change and some possess poor social judgement.
Some people with NLD have poor co-ordination, balance problems and difficulty with fine motor skills.

Check out this neat blog from a really cool Mom, who is doing a wonderful job raising awareness about Down Syndrome, by sharing her families journey with her beautiful daughter Pip!
What is Happy Soul Project? Happy Soul Project started out as a way for me to share my story... It was an open, honest and sometimes funny take on the challenges, triumphs & sweet moments of raising two little hooligans, one who just happens to have Down syndrome. As with anything it has soared into so much more. Happy Soul Project is about striving to be grateful no matter what happens in life. It’s about accepting the life fate gave you, seeing the beauty in the challenges and the hope in the hardships. It’s about finding joy unexpectedly, becoming a kinder person & continuing to always have an open mind. Happy Soul Project is about breaking down stigmas, changing perspectives and celebrating differences.
