There's no better way to help than to reach out to others and share our stories.
Your first step is to realize you are not alone. This site is meant to keep us connected and informed. And, if sometime in the future, you want to share a story about your loved one with I/DD who is incarcerated, formerly incarcerated, or has recently become involved with the judicial system, then we can talk about putting your story out there. It might help others - the way I hope that sharing my story helps you.
