Feeling nervous for your child’s first/next year at school, especially when it comes to supporting their health needs? What about gym class or sports? Wondering how to manage the transition into older grades or even post-secondary? Looking for tips from experienced parents/caregivers? We’ve got you covered!

On August 22nd, you’re invited to tap into the Cassie + Friends’ ConnectWork of families and other experts to discuss all things ‘back to school’ with rheumatic disease (yes, it’s that time already!). Bring your school-related questions and get valuable input on all the hot topics on every parent’s mind – from what shoes to buy for your child, how to best communicate with teachers, and so much more!

What is the C+F ConnectWork?

Our ConnectWork is designed to help you build strong personal connections, share valuable insights, and navigate the challenges of living with a rheumatic condition more easily. As part of our ConnectWork, you’ll gain access to a wealth of tailored resources, expert healthcare teams, cutting-edge research, and, most importantly, a network of others who truly understand your journey. Together, we can all make childhood rheumatic diseases a little brighter as we work together towards better care, more awareness and a cure!

Grab your C+F School Action Plan and join us for a casual online get-together where we’ll learn from experts, share back-to-school plans, resources, tips, and chat about anything that’s on your mind.
