Author Bio:
Dr. Myava Clark has a PhD in Professional Studies which includes both Leadership & Administration and Higher Education. Dr. Clark is a wife and mother of two. She is a registered respiratory therapist and a neonatal pediatric specialist, as well as a college professor. Both her children had special needs: her son had learning differences and her daughter had medical challenges. As such, Dr. Clark is familiar with the requirements, rights, and experiences of both the individual education program (IEP) and the 504 Plan described in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Dr. Clark brings her experience to this book as a mother and an educator. After shepherding her two children through the education system, sometimes fighting for their rights, she learned what it takes to advocate for her children to get the appropriate services and supports needed to help them reach their goals. Dr. Clark wrote HELP! Support for Parents of Children with Learning and Thinking Differences to Feel Confident, Capable, and Fulfilled to give parents the tools and support they need to navigate parenting children with learning and thinking differences. This book is a combination of Dr. Clark’s personal experiences and a literature review of helpful resources and materials so that readers can find all the information they need in one place. Parents of children with learning and thinking differences can stop searching the internet to find the information they need and instead, they can turn to HELP! Support for Parents of Children with Learning and Thinking Differences to Feel Confident, Capable, and Fulfilled.
Dr. Clark started a business with her son, Chris Jr., called CASEN (Collaborative Advancement for Social-Emotional Needs) LLC to further support parents of children with learning and thinking differences, as they meet the needs of their children.
