Let’s be real — coordinating your child’s medical care and supports can feel like a full-time job. First steps, birthdays, graduations… and then suddenly you’re enrolling in Medi-Cal waivers, trying to find new doctors for your young adult, and wait — why can’t I see my child’s medical info anymore?! And let’s not forget the …

If you’re parenting a child with autism (or any developmental disability), you know it can be so much more than making them their favorite breakfast, putting on their favorite backpack, and getting them to school in the morning.

Behavior. Such a small word, yet it can shape so much of our daily lives as parents. If you’re raising a child with a disability, you’ve probably heard it all — “Your child is non-compliant.” Or “Your child wandered off again today.” Or maybe just the frustratingly vague “We don’t understand why [insert “bad” behavior …

The holiday season is filled with excitement — sparkling lights, festive music, delicious treats, and the joy of gift-giving. But for many families like ours, it can also come with a side of stress.

Parents, it’s that time of year again — winter break: the season of holiday music, steamy mugs of hot chocolate, cozy sweaters, and, ‘mom, I’m bored!’ And while a few weeks of holiday cheer sounds great in theory, it can also mean three weeks of “home time” for the kids.
