[blparent] upcoming Hadley seminiar`

[sharon howerton]

Dianna, I also am in Chicago (north side). You are welcome to stay at the 
seminar as long as you are able. As for transporting your child, I'm not 
sure if you use paratransit but if so, I'm not sure if they permit you to 
bring a young child with you. I'd suggest, if you use that service yourself, 
check with PACE or your carrier. But in truth, public trans may be more 
reliable! Perhaps there is a parent in the group that could assist you.
