Was a treat to have @MattKwan_PhD at @UBC_CCDPM for terrific talk on #DevelopmentalCoordinationDisorder. @BrockUResearch

[Matt Kwan @MattKwan_PhD]

Fantastic #DCD14 keynote by @jdzwicker - how we better advocate from a public policy perspective. Reinforces for me the need to: better consider intersectionality & have more focus on mental well-being (ie, beyond MH deficits). @DCD_14 @JohnCairney68 @SKDowling @MaeghanJames

Please circulate widely if you can (or personally share with other)! the PASS program/trial is for veterans and current military - a simple (but very fun!) program offering weekly ball hockey as a means to develop social relationships and personal thriving.
