"No matter where you are on your residential planning journey, Moving Out will be useful for you. I know of no other resource that gives families, professionals and advocates all the information they need in a neatly organized, easy to read format. Navigating the system is not easy, but Moving Out can help you ask the right questions and make good decisions in planning for your family member." Jo Ann Simons, MSW | "In your book Moving Out, I read a mother's story of her adult son with Asperger's who - after struggling to live with others - was so much happier living alone with supervision. This validated my sense about my own son who needs solitude in order to thrive. It was so helpful to read about a situation similar to mine. Thank you for writing this book." Mary Anne Jackson |
