One of the toughest obstacles parents face is the transition time from EI to CPSE. They no longer have a service coordinators to guide them through their child's educational pathway. The parents have to become the main advocates for their child and rely on the support of the classroom teacher, resources in the community and scientifically-based research to make informed decisions. I am a teacher of child who are diagnosed with ASD and I do my best to support and guide parents. I hope there are more teachers out there like me! Kim Heinemann
