About The Special Needs Parent Handbook

The Special Needs Parent Handbook is a compilation of life lessons from our experiences raising a daughter with significant special needs.  This book will help you negotiate the maze of financial, educational and emotional decisions we all face each day and in the long-run, as caregivers to children with special needs.

This handbook is designed to help you focus on what is most important in your life while dealing most effectively with the constant challenges.

100% of the proceeds from the sales of this book support Advocacy4All, a new initiative to help families advocate more effectively on behalf of their children.

If you like the book, thank you for adding a 5 star review on Amazon.  The more good reviews that are added the more books we can sell to help fund our library donation program and other advocacy initiatives.

Thank you,

Michey & Jon Singer

(Rebecca’s parents)
