Disability is Natural

Description

The Disability is Natural web site is brought to you by BraveHeart Press, the family-owned business of Kathie Snow. The mission of this site is to encourage new ways of thinking about disability and to help create a society in which all people are valued and included.

Kathie is the wife of Mark, the mother of Emily and Benjamin (who are both in college), and a zealous promoter of new ways of thinking about disability. Her book, Disability is Natural: Revolutionary Common Sense for Raising Successful Children with Disabilities, 2nd Edition, is the culmination of over 14 years of experience as a public speaker, trainer, and consultant on disability issues. Kathie believes it's time for new perspectives about disability, and she created the Bowl of Apples logo to illustrate that just as a green apple is more like red apples than different, individuals with disabilities are more like people without disabilities than different. In addition to her book, Kathie has produced an enlightening and provocative video, and a line of products and a variety of articles---new ones are added regularly---to share the revolutionary common sense that disability is natural!

In 1987, when her son, Benjamin, was diagnosed with cerebral palsy at the tender age of four months, Kathie—like most parents in similar situations—was initially bewildered and somewhat frightened by the diagnosis. And as many other parents do, she eagerly entered the world of services, interventions, and expert opinions—Disability World. At first, Kathie felt the relief that comes from the protective arms of professionals in the early intervention system.
