Community Education Series
Hill Learning Center’s Community Education Series (CES) is a free, public program designed to engage and educate the community about topics related to learning and attention challenges. The series aims to increase awareness and understanding of learning differences and provide families and educators with practical resources and information grounded in research. CES is core to Hill’s commitment to Furthering Access to its programs in support of the 1 in 5 students with learning and attention challenges.
Ideal for parents and professionals, the Community Education Series is open to anyone and is always free.
2023-24 Series presented by The Forest at Duke
Join Brittni Winslow, Executive Director of Emerge Pediatric Therapy, for a presentation on how to better understand your child’s behavior through developing your own “sensory lens.” We will explore our own sensory preferences and those of our children, and use that information to better respond and support their needs throughout the day. Given that we are all sensory beings and have to emotionally regulate daily, this presentation will be appropriate for those supporting students of any age.
