Description


From Home to School: Bridging Health, Neurodivergence, and Advocacy with Dr. Karin Varblow



When home, healthcare, and school feel like three separate worlds, how do you build one clear path for your child?



Pediatrician and Neurodivergence Specialist Dr. Karin Varblow joins Wendy to connect medication management, behavior-as-communication, and care coordination into a parent-friendly plan. With roots in education/social work and lived experience, Dr. Varblow offers scripts, weekly rhythms, and a “one child” lens you can take straight into your next IEP/504 meeting.



Three Key Takeaways




  • One child, one plan: Align health + school with shared data and a point person in each system.


  • De-stigmatize supports: Treat medication as one tool; share what helps and side effects.


  • Weekly rhythm: Send a short home–school snapshot (strengths, struggles, supports tried).
