I'm thrilled to share excepts from these conversations, with the generous permission of the parents involved, through powerful Insights from the Heart videos compiled for each course module.
Every compilation also shares guidance, advice and perspectives from leading professionals, including lawyers, educators, financial planners, physicians, therapists, home care coordinators and more.
