This training focuses on the unique and often intensified challenges faced by parents of children with intellectual disabilities as they navigate the balance between caregiving and professional responsibilities. Together, we will explore evidence-based practices that can help parents manage these dual demands and examine how the workplace can play a meaningful role in improving their overall quality of life. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the everyday realities these parents face, fostering a culture of awareness, empathy, and open communication. The aim is to empower organisations to build supportive environments where caregiver wellbeing is prioritised—contributing to healthier teams, stronger engagement, and a workplace culture rooted in compassion and respect.
