Description
On this new episode Dr. Dan and guest Kelley Coleman discuss disability and her must-read book Everything No One Tells You About Parenting a Disabled Child: Your Guide to the Essential Systems, Services, and Supports.
According to the CDC, “Every 4 ½ minutes a baby is born with a birth defect in the United States.” That’s 1 in 33.
Dr. Dan and Kelley talk about how to navigate the practicalities of parenting a disabled child including diagnosis, school, doctors, insurance, financial planning, disability rights, and what life looks like as a parent caregiver. With over a decade of experience navigating these systems for her own child, author Kelley Coleman helps parents of disabled children feel less overwhelmed.
Kelley Coleman is a feature film development executive turned author and disability advocate. Her book stems from her own parenting experience – giving parents the tools to spend less time navigating the challenging stuff and more time just loving their kids exactly as they are. Kelley lives in Los Angeles with her husband, two children, and her son’s trusty service dog.
