Today I met a very sweet couple at Yum Yums who asked me some questions to better support their son with special needs. Thank you for the kind chat 🥰
I am always flattered that families are comfortable asking me those hard questions. I welcome any and all questions even if I don't know the answers. And if I don't, I generally have someone to refer to who could offer more information.
I am resharing this post because I think it has good information. If you have additional resources you think can be added to it, PLEASE add it in the comments.
And thank you again, Yum Yums on the Run for having amazing cheesy broccoli soup that I should NOT be eating 🤣

I am going to keep this post continually pinned to my page. It will serve as a reference point for any kind of resource I come across for the Special Needs population. If you have some you would like to add, please let me know. Review it regularly as it will be edited periodically 😊
Anything with a check mark means I have made/scheduled a specific post related to that resource. You should be able to search their name on my page and find the exact post. If you can't find it, it's likely scheduled for in the future but I can get the information to you if needed.
