Casi 1 de cada 4 padres y madres en Estados Unidos que viven con sus hijos menores de 18 años tuvo una enfermedad mental durante el último año. Incluye imágenes de cuatro figuras de distintos géneros y discapacidades, con una de ellas resaltada para representar el 1 de cada 4.
El Enfoque de Práctica ParentingWell apoya a profesionales de la salud conductual en la integración de conversaciones sobre la crianza y las experiencias familiares en su trabajo con personas adultas con enfermedad mental. Cada punto está acompañado por una ilustración de un grupo de investigadores analizando y discutiendo datos.
Personas revisoras de la comunidad identificaron beneficios de ParentingWell para la comunidad de Filadelfia:“Los materiales ofrecen una guía para que los profesionales clínicos puedan involucrarse y hacer preguntas sobre la crianza, y no resultan demasiado clínicos.” “Como madre o padre que vive con una enfermedad mental, creo que si este programa hubiera estado disponible antes, habría encontrado estabilidad y éxito en mis prácticas de crianza, en mi vida diaria, en mi carrera, etc., mucho antes.” Las preguntas y actividades se consideraron estimulantes y reflexivas.

Nearly 1 out of 4 of American parents who live with their children under the age of 18 had a mental illness within the past year. Includes images of four figures of different genders and disabilities, with one of them highlighted to signify 1 out of 4.
The ParentingWell Practice Approach supports behavioral-health practitioners in integrating conversations about parenting and family experiences into their work with adults with mental illness. The adaptation process in Philadelphia included the following overlapping steps: 1 The establishment of an Adaptation Team. 2 Community review of existing ParentingWell content. 3. The ParentingWell Learning Collaborative, an online training program for providers in Philadelphia. Each point is accompanied with an illustration of a group of researchers discussing data.
Community reviewers identified benefits of ParentingWell for the Philadelphia community: The materials provide a blueprint for clinicians to engage and ask questions about parenting and wasn’t too clinical.” “As a parent who is coping with mental illness, I think that if this program had been available sooner, I would have found stability and success in my parenting, daily life, career, etc., a long time ago.” The questions and activities were thought provoking.

Quote from Joanne Nicholson says that whether you identify as a person with a disability or others think of you as a person with a disability, to be able to speak your mind and feel that you’re being heard and that you are at the table having a two-way conversation. I think that’s about respect. That’s helping to build trust with your provider or your teacher or whomever you’re with or your family member.
In this podcast episode, Dr. Joanne Nicholson sits down with Tamara Huntley and Helen Osborne to discuss communication challenges faced by people with disabilities.

Research Presentation Spotlight. Designing Learning Spaces for Neurodiversity and Disability. Dr Nicole Merrick.
Young people with disability can face barriers in taking part fully in learning and school life. This project aims to understand how the spaces at school can influence student participation.
Making school buildings more accessible can help all students participate and enjoy school to the fullest.
This study allowed students with disability put forward their thoughts about learning spaces in photo form, and told us how school design impacted their life at school.
This week, we'd like to draw attention to a presentation given by Nicole and Christine in November at the University of Melbourne's Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning's 2025 Symposium.

While other families talk about sports schedules and weekend plans, many disabled parents are quietly managing crises created by the very systems meant to help them. You’re filling out forms, gathering records, fighting decisions that shouldn’t have happened, and explaining, over and over, that your disability doesn’t make you less of a parent, but it does mean the world isn’t designed for how your brain and body work.
In a recent blog post, Michelle Castille shares her experiences as a disabled parent, likening them to the everyday complexities of doing laundry. Read here: zurl.co/LNw2D

Image description: A green text bubble reads: NDEAM 2025. Research about disability must include disabled people. Their lived expertise ensures studies center the needs of disabled people, challenge ableist assumptions, and advance justice rather than perpetuate harm. Representation in the field is essential for shaping policies, practices, and knowledge that truly reflect and serve disabled communities. The quote is attributed to Laurin Bixby, who is seen smiling, framed by a blue shadow.
"Employing disabled people in the research field can prevent harm and ensure that research is responsive to the needs of the communities most impacted by the research.” - Laurin Bixby, Research Scientist
