Infos

This insightful guide shows professionals how to collaborate with parents and guardians of children with disabilities in empathic, respectful, knowledgeable, and supportive ways. Packed with first-hand accounts and advice from parents and guardians, this book shines a light on lived experiences and reveals paths toward meeting families where they are in order to move forward together. Boroson emphasizes that appreciating the real needs of these families is a crucial step beyond mere adherence to a generic set of professional best practices or principles. Whether working in the field of medicine, education, law, mental health, or related services-in any capacity-readers will come away with the holistic knowledge, inclusive language, productive strategies, and differentiated understanding needed to work effectively with the diverse families they serve. Included is a robust array of resources for families, such as books, articles, associations, organizations, and support networks, along with a website for additional, up-to-date resources.
