The coronavirus impacts everyone. But it creates added challenges for some people. That includes kids and adults with learning differences or disabilities.

We’ve created this resource to make the health crisis easier to manage. There are tools and information to help at home, at school, and at work. We’ll be providing updates on issues that impact learning, special education, talking with kids, and the workplace.

This situation is quickly evolving. The most important thing is to be informed on the health aspects of the virus. You can get updates at the Centers for Disease Control website. Your state health department and school district may be other good resources. So is the American Academy of Pediatrics.

We’ll be updating and adding to our information. So keep checking back.
