The subtitle of this January 2019 article in
Exceptional Parent
is "finding more joy on the journey." The article focuses on helping parents get organized, build their support team, make time for self-care, and seek professional therapy when necessary.
Just updated by CPIR, this page is written to give parents a quick roadmap to the disability world of help that’s available in the United States and point them to disability resources on the CPIR website and beyond that may come in handy, now and as time goes by.
What about the professionals who work with this newly diagnosed baby, toddler, preschooler, or school-aged student? Perhaps they, too, are new to disability. Also just updated, this CPIR resource page is easy for parents and Parent Centers to share with child care providers, early childhood educators, afterschool programs, and teachers.
