"I wished I took this class months/years sooner." Ofc. R. Bartels #18 Posen Police Department				"After receiving our son's diagnosis, we were unsure about how to be effective parents to a child with ASD. Holly and Giant Steps helped improve our connection with him, giving us both the confidence and parental tools to best raise him. We can't praise their services highly enough."
