Program 1 – Understanding Your Child’s Diagnosis

Understanding Your Child’s Diagnosis

This program helps parents and carers gain clarity and confidence in truly understanding their child’s needs. We guide you through the process of interpreting reports and assessments, so they feel less overwhelming, while showing you what milestones to look for and when to seek extra support. You’ll also learn simple, family-friendly ways to explain your child’s diagnosis and strengths to relatives, teachers, and support staff—making sure everyone in your child’s life is on the same page.

With practical tools like a report decoding checklist, a diagnosis summary template, and a school communication planner, this module empowers you to advocate for your child and build stronger connections with the people who support them
