But there is plenty of new information to explore. For too long, people with disabilities had been told that having families of our own was not an option. The truth is, though, that we have always been parents, and as our society evolves, more and more of us will have access to that opportunity. If you are a parent with a disability , a person with a disability who is planning to become a parent , or a nondisabled partner of a disabled parent , this page is for you. We hope that this page is a good place to start on your own journey toward independent parenting.
Millions more exist worldwide.
As people with disabilities have become more integrated into our society, more and more of us have been able to successfully raise families of our own. It is expected that as more opportunities become available to people with disabilities, more of us will choose to become parents. This page continually grows as other parents with disabilities have shared with us their success stories and tips that have enabled them to successfully raise their families. Please do stop by often, as we are constantly adding information as we become aware of the resources that are available. The Web Access Symbol indicates that this page is designed to be accessible to people with disabilities.
