1620 N. Woodbine Rd.
St. Joseph, Mo. 64506<\/p>\nEvent Agenda<\/h2>\n
UMKC and Missouri Family to Family will offer a session about Support Decision-Making\u00a0<\/p>\n\n
\n
What You’ll Learn<\/h2>\n
\n
Understand your options, from full guardianship to less restrictive alternatives like Supported Decision-Making, and what’s right for your family.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
<\/strong>Get clear, practical information on the benefits, services, and supports available to help your young adult thrive.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
<\/strong>Explore the full range of paths forward: education, employment, independent living, and more.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
<\/strong>Meet local agencies and organizations ready to walk alongside your family, and connect with resources built for this journey.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
<\/strong>Talk with other parents and families who understand exactly what you’re going through \u2014 because sometimes the best support comes from someone who’s been there.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nRegister for Pathways\u00a0<\/h2>\n
