Life is a marathon, not a sprint…..

Welcome to our site! My goal is to share our (not so) unique, (maybe) specific journey as a family navigating the various special education transition services and starting a self-directed adult service program. We definitely don’t have all of the answers, but hopefully you can learn from our trials and errors to make your own journey a bit smoother.
