The Current.
Practical, situation-specific guidance for families in Whatcom County — the kind of thing we'd tell you on a phone call, written down so you can come back to it.
Coming soon
The Current is not a general parenting blog. It is a place for the specific questions that come up for families raising a child with a developmental disability, navigating foster or kinship care, or supporting a young person through a difficult transition — written plainly, without filler.
We are building this out now, and it will publish as pieces are ready, not before we can stand behind what they say.
What's coming
A few of the first topics.
Navigating school placement decisions
What to ask for, and what to expect, when a child needs more support than a standard classroom placement provides.
The first weeks with a new placement
Practical guidance for kinship and foster caregivers in the early days after a child, including an infant, arrives with little notice.
Understanding ABLE accounts
A plain explanation of what an ABLE account is, who qualifies, and how it fits alongside other benefits as a young person approaches adulthood.

Let us know you're interested, and we'll reach out when the first piece is live.
No commitment
This is separate from contacting us about services — just say you'd like to hear when The Current launches, and we'll follow up.
