A free information series for parents in the community – providing trusted information and access to local experts
About CHEO Connects!
There is an overwhelming amount of information out there for parents. The Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) is working to help parents cut through the clutter and learn about the key physical and mental health issues that impact their kids.
CHEO Connects is a free information series for parents in the community — providing trusted information and access to local experts.
There will be six evening events rolled out over the 2011/2012 school year -- each covering both physical and mental health topics for a specific age group.
Each CHEO Connects session will help parents focus on key such things, including: What is “normal” for this age group? What are the biggest red flags I should watch out for? What I can do to help make a difference? CHEO experts will be on hand to answer questions.
