A Little Glimpse Into My Life...

Here is a link to a newspaper article in the Portland Tribune today that is about the use of Restraints and Seclusion with children with special needs. It is a wonderful thing to have a reporter interested and pay attention to the needs of special children and youth and this article forwards the movement into more collaborative methods of managing challenging behaviors. Here is a little glimpse into my life and the life of my special child...

Carrie, I had no idea. Big {{{hugs}}} to both you and Jovanna. I'm happy to hear that she's in a day program that fully understands her needs.
