SUMMARY:Becoming Person Centered Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join LUK’s Families Connected Family Resource Center and presenter Cheryl Ryan Chan for this informative Becoming Person Centered Workshop! We have an in-person session\, with lunch provided\, from 10:00-12:30 at the LUK Main Office (545 Westminster Street\, Fitchburg\, MA) and a virtual session in the evening from 5:30-7:30.

Decisions about services and supports for people with disabilities are made based on funding\, geography\, and availability. Service providers are bound by regulations\, budgets\, and geographic boundaries. We hear of the phrase “person centered” but it is misunderstood and misused. We cannot change the systems overnight\, but we can shift our perspective\, language and actions so that conversations and decisions are about dignity\, joy\, and opportunity in life for the people that we love. In this workshop\, we will discuss how we can be person-centered in a system-centered world.” \nThe LUK Families Connected Family Resource Center is a supportive\, multicultural resource for North Central MA families. We are here to provide a welcoming\, supportive environment for local individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities\, including Autism Spectrum Disorder\, as well as their families and caretakers. Learn more about Families Connected here.

SUMMARY:September: Hispanic-Latinx Heritage Month\, National Recovery Month\, Suicide Prevention and Awareness Month
DESCRIPTION:Hispanic-Latinx Heritage Month\nNational Recovery Month\nThe purpose of National Recovery Month is to raise awareness of the journey to recovery from substance use disorders and mental health issues. This month is a great time to remember to be inspired\, empowered\, and hopeful. It offers an environment for recognizing the successes and milestones of those in recovery as well as celebrating their resiliency and strength. In addition to increasing public awareness of the success of treatment and support services\, National Recovery Month inspires people to ask for assistance without worrying about being judged. This month has significance for lowering stigma\, supporting in recovery\, and creating more wholesome and encouraging communities. \nImportance of Recovery: \nDestigmatizing addiction \nPromoting treatment and support \nCelebrating achievements \nCreating community support \nLearn more: \nhttps://www.newenglandrecoverycenter.org/blog/why-national-recovery-month-plays-such-an-important-role-in-addiction-recovery/ \n  \nSuicide Prevention and Awareness Month\nThe reason Suicide Prevention Month is so important is because it raises awareness of a serious problem that affects people everywhere. This month offers a chance to de-stigmatize discussions about mental health and suicide\, promoting knowing when to communicate with someone who might be suffering and the ability to identify behaviors that indicate a need for support. It highlights the importance of early intervention\, easily available resources\, and networks of support for individuals experiencing suicidal thoughts or actions. Moreover\, Suicide Prevention Month serves as a time to honor those who have lost their lives to suicide and to emphasize the significance of prevention. Ultimately\, the focus of this month is on raising awareness of suicide and teaching people how to prevent it. \nImportance of Suicide Prevention Month: \nRaising awareness \nPromoting resources and support \nEducating \nAdvocacy \nhonoring \nLearn more: \nhttps://www.samhsa.gov/newsroom/observances/suicide-prevention-month \n
