With the constant progress of technology, more and more options are becoming available to help children with disabilities take care of themselves, interact comfortably with their peers, go to school, and learn to live independently. But where do you begin if, like most people, you need to find financial assistance to afford the equipment or services that you and your child need? The following resources represent only the tip of the iceberg in terms of the information and help that are out there: recycled assistive devices, emergency medical transportation, healthcare assistance, and home and vehicle modifications. Even when you find your direction, you may have to navigate your way through a maze of paperwork, rules, regulations, requirements and restrictions. But you can do it. All it takes is a little brains, some courage, and a steadfast heart.
