Information Programs

SKKA A LIFE PLAN invests particularly in close cooperation with families, whose members it considers as partners and companions in the course of the implementation of the Life Plan of each individual. Therefore,informative and educational speeches are organised in order to better involve families in the overall planning and to inform them about issues related to the daily life and development of the individual and the whole family.
The topics are decided either from the requests of the families themselves, or from the current circumstances in the field.

The Cygnet training program has the ultimate goal of educating parents and carers in understanding the Autism Spectrum. The program provides, in a structured way, basic information related to the Autism Spectrum as well as contemporary intervention techniques. At the same time it functions as a meeting place for parents in order to exchange views, experiences and improve the quality of life of their children as well as their own. The Cygnet program was created in the UK by the Charitable Organisation “Believe in Children Barnado’s” and was translated into Greek by the Society for Psychosocial Studies.
The groups are addressed to:

• Parents who recently received the diagnosis of their child
• Parents who, for various reasons, may not have wanted or been able to access a suitable program for their child earlier
• Family members who would like to be informed about the diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder
• Caregivers who provide immediate support to people on the Autism spectrum.

The instructors who conduct the program are certified by the above bodies.
Participants: 5-12 people / group
Duration: 7 three-hour meetings every 15 days
