The Kathleen Kennedy Martin Family
Forum was established by Kathleen’s colleagues, teachers and friends
to pay tribute to this remarkable and talented young woman. In
honor of Kathleen’s passionate commitment to enhancing the lives
of children with autism and their families and her exceptional
ability to do so, Kathleen’s colleagues have volunteered to provide
a series of workshops for the families of HAVE Dreams and other
families of children with special needs. The generosity and eagerness
with which Kathleen’s colleagues from across the country have
offered to share their wealth of expertise reflects their admiration
and affection for Kathleen, her ongoing meaningful contributions
and the many lives she has touched, as well as their recognition
of the fundamental importance of the work of HAVE Dreams. The
forum is designed as a celebration of Kathleen’s life and work.
It is an ongoing series of interactive workshops that allows families
in small groups to learn from and have dialogue with experts in
the field. This interactive format reflects the spirit of Kathleen’s
work and her passion about the reciprocal nature of learning whereby
families and clinicians teach each other through the active exchange
of ideas.
