Parents
These resources have been created to support parents who are expecting a child with an IVSC, or have been informed that their child has been diagnosed with an IVSC. These resources aim to help overcome fears of talking about IVSC with your child or getting the information you need to best support your child and their health needs.
Through empowering you and your child in medical settings you are better placed to navigate systems and decisions when engaging in healthcare. These resources were also created to assist with supporting your child’s right to autonomy and self-determination over their own body. They compliment and can be paired with our resources for Youth and Teens.
