    URL: www.thelittleprince.org
    Email: suzanne@thelittleprince.org

    "I'm just a mother that has come to realize the importance of obtaining proper treatment for children with RAD. I want to reach out and let other RAD parents know that there really is hope for these children... and for their families. My goal here is to create a warm and friendly environment for other RAD parents."

The Primal Wound

    URL: www.primalwound.com
    Email: nverrier@sterlink.net

    Every child who is separated from his or her biological mother will experience abandonment and loss. The key word here is "experience," because many people would like to believe that relinquishment and adoption are simply concepts, and that the very real pain that results can be overcome by intellectual understanding or legislative amendment.

    Email: theraplay@aol.com

    Theraplay was developed by clinical psychologist Ann M. Jernberg, Ph.D. It has been used extensively since 1967 in Head Start and day care centers, special education classrooms, early intervention and parenting programs, residential and out-patient treatment centers and private family practice. Because of its relationship enhancing aspects, Theraplay is used effectively with children diagnosed as having autism or pervasive developmental disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorders, attachment disorders, adjustment disorders, anxiety disorders and depression.
