Module 1: Zen Moment 1 - Awareness

Awareness of our roles as parents in the IEP meeting is a big deal. What is our role as parents? Our child’s advocate and a good teammate.

Module 2: Zen Moment 2 - Mindfulness

Keeping up with our child’s special education goals and progress at home can take a lot of energy. Like all mental energy, it is a finite resource. If our parenting energy is depleted and we become buried in “just-keeping-up-parenting,” meaningful growth is going to be difficult. Take some time to take some time for yourself.

Brian King, Jordan School District

ASPEN has been the game-changer we have been looking for in our district. We are building a culture of safety and optimism with ASPEN at the root of it all.

Deb Fenton, Oakcrest Elementary School

Too often behavior plans fail to include plans for when things cool down. Our students need ongoing instruction in coping skills and Chillax is the only program that delivers.

Janet Hansen, The Ranches Academy

Our Tier 1 classroom management has never looked so good. Everything you hear is true: Happy teachers = Happy Class. Everyone needs this training.
