​Every child develops and experiences the world differently. Sometimes, developmental or behavioural differences can leave parents, educators, and caregivers wondering whether what they're seeing is simply part of a child's development or something that may need further attention and support.

​Join us for a FREE community workshop exploring neurodiversity, with a focus on ADHD and autism, and how developmental and behavioural differences can present in children.

​Led by Runda Ebied (OT), Pediatric Occupational Therapist at Ruh, with over a decade of experience working directly with schools, teachers, and students, this session will provide practical insights to help you recognize signs and challenges, understand when early support may be beneficial, and learn strategies to help children thrive at home and in school.
