HYPU's Disparity Prevention Team has collaborated with Lead4Tomorrow to create a Family Hui for 6 to 10 Asian parents with children ages 0 to 5 with and without developmental disabilities and soon-to-be parents in Sacramento. Through this program, parents will learn about positive and mindful parenting, developmental disabilities, and services. Together, they will build strong connections and rapport with one another to create a parent support group. If you know anyone who would benefit from this program, please let us know or have them fill out the form.
We are looking for story submissions from individuals with developmental disabilities to create the "This Is Me" Book Part 2. Through this book, we hope to shine a light on individuals with developmental disabilities and have their voices heard. There is an option for these story submissions to remain anonymous and individuals can be residents from anywhere in the US. We will be creating a similar book with new stories from individuals with developmental disabilities. Like the first book, there will be a Hmong version and an English version. If anyone is interested, please have them scan the QR code and fill out the form.
