This program brings you internationally renowned research and best-practice information.

Before developing the modules, we reviewed research and international guidelines. From this, we identified the main issues that need to be addressed when supporting children and their families.

We spoke with parents about their experiences with skill regression and included their advice, stories, and quotes throughout the modules and podcasts to ensure the program is relevant and helpful for you.

We developed the program with experienced clinicians, doctors and therapists. Their insights and quotes are woven throughout to support families based on years of professional experience.

This portal is assembled from 3 sources of knowledge and experience: research and best-practice guidelines, the lived experience of parents and families, and the expertise of health workers.
