Lutherwood is excited to announce that on May 16th Barbara Arrowsmith-Youth is coming to Waterloo Region to share her inspiring story of her personal journey overcoming severe learning disabilities.

Today, her training programs for students with learning disabilities are used internationally. Her powerful story creates hope for children and adults with learning disabilities and mental health challenges.

This event is open to the public at a cost of $10.00. 

"I was in a cycle. I would be okay, then would struggle, then would crash and self-harm. Lutherwood had people there for me, always helping me. Instead of turning to self-harm, I learned to sit in my anxiety and feel it, to build awareness and resilience. Now, I am more confident and I know what I want in life. I miss the incredible staff there."
