Intellectual disability

Description

Directions

Choose one of the following intellectual disabilities in which you are interested:

· Cri-Du-Chat syndrome (5p- syndrome or cat cry syndrome)

· Down syndrome

· Fetal alcohol spectrum (FAS)

· Fragile X syndrome

· Neurofibromatosis (NF)

· Phenylketonuria (PKU)

· Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS)

FLORIDA IS THE STATE I NEED THIS FOR

Find local, state, and national resources for your selected disability, including such things as:

· FAQ

· National/local support groups for parents

· National/local support groups for siblings

· Online support groups (Facebook groups, for instance)

· Conferences

· Medical resources

· Financial resources

· Disability caseworker/agency

· Caregiver support (such as respite)

· Camps, summer, life enrichment, and after school programs

Create a digital resource packet that you could share with parents. Your resource packet should consist of a Microsoft Word document that includes your FAQ, links (written as linked text) with descriptions, and scans or photos of any non-digital material you acquire. You should use headings for sections but are not required to use APA formatting.
