Complex Neurodevelopmental Disorder: Information for Family & Friends

Information Sheet for Friends & Family

Your support and understanding is very important to us. It takes a community to raise a child, and in our particular case, we need you more than ever!

Children, youth, and adults with CND have brains that are wired very differently, and the disabilities are often hidden behind a beautiful face with a kind and loving soul which makes some of the puzzling and problematic behaviour even more difficult to understand. 

This information sheet provides a list of common needs for all people, especially those experiencing CND, as well as tips for helping our person feel good about themselves and to reach their potential.

This guide is intended to be shared with friends and family to help you ask for and receive the support you need.
