Community Foundations : For Your Child With a Disability : How
to Establish Relationships That Will Support Your Child After You're
Gone by Linda J. Stengle. One of the most frightening scenarios for
parents of disabled children is the unknown aftermath of their own
death - who will care for their adult children then? There is a
long-term care crisis in the US for disabled adults, due to a
variety of integrated factors: limited choices, expense,
discrimination, to name a few. In Laying
Community Foundations, author Linda J. Stengle, a long-term care
consultant and former director of a private adult residential
facility, provides a fresh workable plan for these parents. |
