Family Connections Webinars, a monthly series created to bring Special Olympics families together in a supportive, welcoming space. These virtual gatherings focus on meaningful connection—linking families to valuable information, practical resources, and, most importantly, to one another. Each session will highlight topics that matter most to our community, from navigating available programs and services to sharing personal experiences, practical strategies, and family success stories. Our goal is to create an open forum where families can learn, ask questions, and feel empowered—while discovering they’re never navigating this journey alone.
Join Dr. Ellen Kroog Donald, Program Director of FGCU’s Golisano Intellectual Developmental Disabilities Initiative (GIDDI) and Assistant Professor of Physical Therapy, as she shares the lifelong benefits of physical activity and how movement can support overall health, wellness, and independence.
You'll also hear from Jannifer Camden, Director of Special Olympics Florida Health Programs, who will provide information on the health and wellness resources available through Special Olympics Florida.
Don't miss this opportunity to learn practical ways to stay active, healthy, and engaged at every stage of life!
Registration is FREE and required to attend.
