Your Stories

ALL FROM YOU

This place is your sharing spot with others.

As a part of Be My Rails - Enabling & Awareness, the Rails & Shine framework offers this space to share lessons learned. Help shining awareness and educating professionals and new parents! The best stories and tips may end up high-lighted here at The Rails & Shine Website or quoted in future books on Autism or ADHD. The purpose is to help parents and teachers, and to make health care professionals and others aware of the signs, struggles and needs of families with a diagnosed child. Be a part of awareness – share your autism & ADHD story!
