Join us to explore innovative interventions supporting children with congenital heart disease.
Children with congenital heart disease (CHD) are at increased risk for neurodevelopmental issues, particularly in executive functioning – critical for academic success and overall well-being.
Despite growing recognition of these difficulties, effective, targeted interventions remain limited.
This conference will explore behavioural and psychsocial interventions to optimize neurodevelopmental outcomes. We will examine interventions being implemented for children with CHD, as well as those successfully applied in other populations, covering a wide range of ages and approaches.
Sessions will cover both conceptual frameworks and practical approaches to complex interventions, with insights from researchers, clinicians, and stakeholders.
