Using a participatory action research approach and Photovoice design, the study will explore stress sources, quality of life perceptions, and the efficacy of Photovoice as an intervention. By integrating the Coping Circumplex Model and the Common Factor Model, the research seeks to provide insights for educators and clinicians, potentially preventing family tragedies and enhancing caregiver well-being. With 30 participants across different child developmental stages, the study will yield practical outcomes, including a Photovoice Work Manual and a website for dissemination. This proposal promises to benefit caregivers, practitioners, and the wider community, contributing to a more supportive environment for children with SEN.enConference Paper
