In collaboration with Auggie:
Caring for a child with ongoing medical needs doesn’t stop at the clinic door. Families often leave appointments with more questions than answers — navigating care plans, insurance, school coordination, therapies, equipment, and the emotional weight of managing it all day to day.
Join us for Caring Beyond the Clinic: Supporting Children with Ongoing Medical Needs, a practical and empowering conversation focused on what real support looks like outside of medical settings. This session centers the lived reality of families coordinating complex care and the systems, advocacy tools, and community resources that help make it sustainable.
Our panel brings together experts in parent advocacy, care coordination, and family support to explore:
✨ How to advocate for your child across medical, school, and insurance systems
✨ What coordinated care actually looks like at home
✨ Navigating paperwork, appointments, and provider communication
✨ Emotional load and decision fatigue for caregivers
✨ How to build a support network beyond clinical teams
✨ Where families can find practical help — not just information
Meet the Panelists:
• Suzie Foger, Empowerenting
• Rebecca Lockard, Pediatric Patient Advocates
• Jodie Klaristenfeld, Flrrish
Whether your child has a recent diagnosis or you’ve been navigating care for years, this conversation is designed to help families feel more equipped, less alone, and more confident managing life beyond appointments.
