Sarah Buffie and The Value of Purpose, Not Problem Solving
Episode description
“It’s not the functional aspect of disability that prevents a good life. It’s the social isolation.” Sarah Buffie gets it, and on this podcast, she unpacks a lot of really great information about how to re-focus caregivers on what really matters to both prevent and to heal trauma. Hint: it’s not more services.
Our relationships are key to healing from trauma and fostering resilience. This school year presents all kinds of challenges to social connections and relationships for our kids. But all is not lost. When we understand how we can create opportunities for relationships, support friendships, embed social opportunities into our kids' IEPs and have a few ideas to get us started, we can create and maintain a social connection even during COVID.
