Parents and caregivers play an essential role in the lives of their children with IDD, helping to ensure their overall health and wellbeing, and supporting their social and emotional needs. The complex role of caring for a family member with IDD can be both a challenging and rewarding experience for caregivers and their families. In this episode, we delve into the parent’s perspective of caring for a child with an intellectual or developmental disability, talking to CAMH's own Lee Steel and Amy Baskin.
