Judith Canty Graves and Carson Graves are parents with typical jobs and interests who spent 15 years in the special education system trying to obtain an appropriate education for their son. Through trial and error, success and failure, they learned to navigate the bureaucratic maze so that he could receive the education he deserved and is entitled to by law. Their book, Parents Have the Power to Make Special Education Work, is written to help other parents achieve similar results for their children.
