Description: Based on the MBSR program developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn PhD at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, Vanderbilt University developed a 6-week course specifically to teach parents of children with disabilities ways to manage their stress. This 6-week course, led by Stephanie Smith and Alyssa DiFilippo of Matrix, will consist of discussion and practice of mindfulness-based techniques. There will be weekly assignments including readings and daily practice of the techniques. This course is offered to parents as a pilot through a grant from the Marin County Board of Supervisors.
