Upon moving to San Antonio in late 2015, their first priority was identification of services available for their daughter, Emma, as a special needs student. While there are a myriad of services available in San Antonio and across Texas, trying to identify the most appropriate schools, organizations, and agencies is often challenging and sometimes paralyzing. Having now done so, they decided to do what they could to help highlight some of the resources for other special needs parents and caregivers.
