"A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him, I may think aloud."
Ralph Waldo Emerson; American poet and philosopher (1803-1882)
Back in 2008, our group has decided to hold a support group at REACH International School in Makati. We had intended for it to be a one time thing. It was a research tool for us to better understand the situation. The session took us by surprise as each of the parent's who attended poured their hearts out by relating their fears and frustrations.

It was truly an uplifting experience for us because we had found a helping hand amidst the darkness. We still have a lot to learn in being a good parent. The comforting thought was that after that day, we knew that we had found our new best friends.

Here is a collection of our thoughts, hopes, and dreams for our special children that we would like to share...

 


In December last year, Center for Possibilities Inc. (CFP), in cooperation with Reach International School launched the book "There's Something You Should Know About Me" at Fully Booked, Bonifacio High Street, Taguig.

The book is a compilation of journal entries by children ages 13-18, both normal and with special needs. The anthology was edited by Carloe Javier and the book design by Dang Sering.
