Planning for Your Child’s Future

“What if I Die Tomorrow?” – Planning for Your Child’s Future

An Online Workshop for Parents, Carers, and Guardians of People with Developmental and Intellectual Disabilities

As support workers, nurses, and carers, one of the most common fears we hear from families is this:

“What will happen to my child when I’m no longer here?”

It’s a question that weighs heavily, but it’s also one that planning can help answer with greater peace of mind.

📅 Upcoming Workshop: “What if I Die Tomorrow?”

This thoughtful, practical workshop is designed specifically for parents, carers, and guardians of people with developmental and intellectual disability.

💬 What You’ll Learn:

This online session will walk you through practical steps and tools to plan for your child’s future support needs in the event that you’re no longer able to care for them. It’s all about making sure your voice – and your child’s needs – are heard, even in your absence.

You’ll receive a comprehensive booklet and planning checklists to help capture:

• Important information about your loved one’s daily needs

• Preferences and routines that support quality of life

• Key contacts and services

• Personal values and family context

These resources can be shared with future support people, family members, or services so that transitions are smoother and your child’s life continues with the dignity, care, and consistency they deserve.

Why This Matters

At Kalkoup Clinics, we understand that planning for the future isn’t easy. But we also know that you don’t have to do it alone. This workshop is a beautiful example of how families can be empowered with knowledge, community connection, and the right tools.
