RESOURCES
As I have researched and searched the internet and networking sources for the best resources I could find, the best and most complete I could find is the link below.
- This is a resource guide produced by Elaine Hime, a Mom of a special needs child who has walked the road. I hope you find this as useful as I have.

2. Another website that I find extremely helpful is Houston Autism Disability Network, with Michelle
Guppy. Many of you will know her at the Warrior Mom for Autism. The link is below.

3. Our newest partner in this quest for JOY is Lighthouse Learning & Resource under the direction of Robin Rettie. I am so honored to have met Robin and look forward to doing great and wonderful things with her for our Treasures. Her website is:

This is by no means a complete list of resources, and I will continue adding in the days and weeks to come. However, with these two great resources anyone can have a good start.
4. I have found another partner that I believe will help families with children or adults with cerebral palsy. https://levinperconti.com/birth-injury/cerebral-palsy/guide-toolkit/
