This training explores the profound impact that celebrations have on the lives of people with Intellectual & Developmental disabilities and the critical role that family members play in creating meaningful experiences. Participants will move beyond traditional holidays thinking to discover the rich variety of celebrations that matter, from personal milestones and cultural traditions to everyday victories. Through research-based content, real-world examples, and practical planning tools, families will learn how to create inclusive celebration experiences that honor their loved one’s preferences, strengthen family bonds, and build authentic community inclusion. Celebrations are not luxury extras but fundamental components of wellbeing, dignity, and belonging.
