Overview

CVI Now hosted a live virtual event with Amanda Griffith-Atkins about all that comes with raising a child with disabilities in a society that is not fully accessible nor inclusive.

Amanda is a licensed marriage and family therapist whose clinical background, combined with her own experience as the mother of a disabled child, has given her a unique and refreshing perspective on parenting. She is the founder of Amanda Atkins Counseling Group in the Lincoln Square neighborhood in Chicago. Many of you may follow her incredible Instagram account (@amanda.griffith.atkins) that is full-on truth about all that we experience as disability parents.
