We’re delighted to present the program for the 2018 OACRS Conference, one of the premier events for Ontario’s child development and rehabilitation sector. This year’s conference takes place from November 18th to 20th at the Toronto Marriot Downtown Eaton Centre, and will be extra special as we use the occasion of the association’s conference to celebrate 40 years of our association. We can’t think of a better way to celebrate such a significant milestone. OACRS’ policies and beliefs have always focused on what is best for kids with special needs and their families. For both of us personally, our work with the association has helped broaden our views when it comes to our sector, and the annual conference has helped us network with professionals and families from across the province and across the country. With the knowledge we gain at the conference, we go back to our respective careers better positioned to support kids with special needs so they can live their best lives. Whether it’s evidence-based research, trends in clinical care, or principles of leadership, you’ll find what you’re looking for at this conference. Your presence is an indication that you are committed to making a positive difference in your community, in our region, and in Ontario. Join us for two full days of sharing knowledge, lively discussion, inspiration and connecting with old friends and new. Be sure to take advantage of the Early Bird discount by registering before Friday October 19th. We look forward to seeing you at the conference!

OPENING KEYNOTE, ANN DOUGLAS SUPPORTING FAMILIES THROUGH THE STORM Ann Douglas, CBC Radio

Wondering what you can do to make a difference for the family of a child who is dealing with a physical, communication, or developmental challenge? Eager to learn how you can communicate your caring and support in a way that recognizes and builds upon the strengths of that family? In this practical and inspiring presentation, Ann Douglas will connect the dots between the growing body of research about family support and engagement and the real-world needs of

children and families. You will discover best practices for building trust with families who are struggling—and in a way that is validating and empowering. After all, if it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a village to support that child’s parent. Here’s how to be that village…. Ann Douglas is the weekend parenting columnist for CBC Radio and the author of numerous bestselling books about pregnancy and parenting. Her most recent books are Parenting Through the Storm (a guide to parenting a child who is struggling with a mental health, neurodevelopmental, or behavioural challenge) and Happy Parents, Happy Kids (a guide to thriving alongside your kids, which will be published by HarperCollins Canada in February). Her website is anndouglas.net.

CLOSING PANEL IT’S A FAMILY AFFAIR Moderated By: Sara Pot, Parent, Niagara Children’s Centre & Parent; Melissa Papaioannou, Parent, KidsAbility Centre for Child Development In 2018, sharing parental responsibilities is highly desirable—even essential. Our concept of family continues to expand. Yet many people still inadvertently reinforce gender norms or judge significant partners differently from the moms who are primary caregivers of kids with special needs. This panel presents the voices and experiences of parenting partners from families connected with our members. In this final session of the 2018 OACRS Conference, parent experts will address the delicate balancing act between partners and the roles clinicians and care providers can play as collaborators.

Noting a rising trend in the mental health needs of the children and youth with disabilities and recognizing that this is a critically important yet underdeveloped skill of our clinicians, Holland Bloorview has responded with a bold vision for mental health, enabling a child’s health mind, body and spirit . This strategy will foster the inclusion of mental health awareness, education, practice enhancement and resources to support children and youth with disabilities.

Learning Objectives: 1. To realize how to establish and implement an organization-wide new area of clinical practice. 2.

In Canada, inclusive education is a priority, but its implementation is less than optimal. We suggest that combining a health framework, the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health with an education framework, Universal Design for Learning, would advance inclusion by supporting children’s participation while also enhancing inter-professional collaboration. In this presentation, we compare both frameworks and use a case study to show how the ICF and UDL can be applied together in practice.

WORKSHOP #605-18 (1:00 pm—2:00 pm) Information to be posted soon. 2:00 pm—3:15 pm CLOSING PANEL—IT’S A FAMILY AFFAIR MODERATED BY: SARA POT, Parent, Niagara Children’s Centre & Parent; MELISSA PAPAIOANNOU, Parent; Kids Ability Centre for Child Development

In 2018, sharing parental responsibilities is highly desirable—even essential. Our concept of family continues to expand. Yet many people still inadvertently reinforce gender norms or judge significant partners differently from the moms who are primary caregivers of kids with special needs. This panel presents the voices and experiences of parenting partners from families connected with our members. In this final session of the 2018 OACRS Conference, parent experts will address the delicate balancing act between partners and the roles clinicians and care providers can play as collaborators. 3:15 pm—3:30 pm CLOSING REMARKS
