Special Needs Conference
| GIFTSNC Homeschool Conference
Dear Fellow Homeschoolers and Parents with Special Need Children,
Every year there are more and more families choosing to home school their children with special needs. GIFTSNC is a home school support group for families with special needs children. Our goal is to support, empower, guide and educate families home schooling children with special needs through conferences, workshops and family-to-family support.
We are planning our third GIFTSNC Home Schooling Special Needs Conference and Exhibitor's Hall on August 15-16, 2008. We are trying to reach as many families as possible that might benefit by attending a conference geared specifically for their unique home school support needs. Below is conference information that can be sent to your members via email or yahoo groups that do not allow attachments.
So many families home schooling special needs children feel that they are alone in their journey. Our conference helps to bring these families together and provide valuable information for teaching special children at home. We would appreciate any help you can give us in letting others know about this conference.
Thank you so very much. Please, let me know if you have any questions. Please also use our website as a resource for your family. We also have a Yahoo! Groups list, http://groups.yahoo.com/group/GIFTSNC/.
