Find your inspiration to either become more involved in disability-focused supports or get the direct support you need to move forward with your own visionary idea to help more people with disabilities. Whether you are a person with a disability, provide support and resources for people with disabilities, or have a loved one who has touched your heart, the authors in this book are talking to YOU.

They have shared their hearts and souls in every chapter as they take you from their initial creation ideas through the joys and challenges of their very personal stories. Much like traditional start-ups and entrepreneurial ventures, every leader in this book began with a burning sense of purpose and commitment to the journey. However, in addition to the typical business-growth issues entrepreneurs face, the authors of this book have the added complexity of caring for someone with a disability or dealing with the daily challenges of having a disability themselves to various degrees. This beautiful difference is what makes this book so special.

Uniting the stories of these exceptional disability leaders provides you with a unique perspective on the real struggles and commitment required to create and grow a disability-focused offering. It is their greatest hope that you find your story and inspiration to become an exceptional leader also.

Excellent gift for special education team member, parent of child with a disability, disability entrepreneur, new speech-language pathology graduate student, CFY year, special education team member, home therapist, and your favorite SLP speech therapist.
