Inclusion should go beyond schools… it should be incorporated into communities, sports, and the workplace.

Special with a Side of Mom uses inclusion events, social gatherings, website applications, and social media platforms to reach caregivers and parents.

We are also partnering with local organizations, employers, sports and recreational teams to provide inclusive systems to benefit all members of society.
