Caregiver Books
There are many resources available and it is recommended that caregivers search these titles online to read the descriptions and reviews in order to determine if they are a good fit for their family.  Many of these books are available at local libraries or your local bookstore or online (Indigo, Amazon).   Another great online resource is through
Parentbooks.
​Here is a list of books on several topics for both caregivers and children:

• Managing Emotions 
• Parenting Your Child
• Learning Disabilities​

"Relationships are the agents of change and the most powerful therapy is human love."
