You've been the village for so many.
Now Let's build One for you.
And I support parents, educators and professionals in that messy, in-between space...when you know a child learns and experiences the world differently, but you’re still trying to understand what that means for them, for the systems around them, and for the role you play in their story.
I'm Kate.
