Every year FND offers a number of workshops and an annual conferenceS designed to educate parents, caregivers, and school administrators regarding the treatment, care, and educational needs of children with disabilities and special needs.

For a recent list of the types of conferences and workshops offered each year to our members, local educators, and interested community members, check out the following:

The Pyramid Approach to Education and Behavior
The Pyramid Approach to Education is a unique model of teaching that establishes effective learning environments for home, school and the community.

Admission costs for these trainings are kept at a minimum and are for the purpose of covering expenses. A limited amount of scholarships are available for those families demonstrating need. When possible, some training/educational opportunities are offered at no cost.
