Upcoming Webinar – End of Life: Issues and Resources for People with Intellectual Disability and Caregivers

End of Life: Issues and Resources for People with Intellectual Disability and Caregivers
Wednesday, January 23, 2019, 4:00-5:00pm ET

“Think about not being told that a close family member has died. Picture not being invited to the funeral. Then imagine that no one will talk to you about the death or explain what happened. Sadly, a number of people with intellectual disability have faced such distressing circumstances.
For over ten years, Australian researchers Professor Roger Stancliffe and Dr. Michele Wiese have collaborated on a growing body of research that examines end-of-life issues for people with intellectual disability and their caregivers. They discovered that, when it comes to dying and death, many people with intellectual disability are confronted with a benign conspiracy of silence.
In this webinar, Roger and Michele will address these issues and what can be done about them.”
