The financial burden of autism is real. As a parent or caregiver of an autistic child, you feel it every month with higher out-of-pocket costs and, for many, lower incomes due to the realities of caring for your child. Yet, you can be successful with your money. My book “Autism and Your Family Finances” can help you take control of your money, build wealth and secure your and your child’s future.
A roadmap for financial success
What you need is a roadmap to show you how to successfully manage the money you have and make the most of every dollar. As a certified financial education instructor and parent of an autistic son, I will show you how! I’ve been on this journey myself, and my husband and I have learned how to budget effectively, paid off debt, invested and taken advantage of financial resources available to our son to help pay for his autism services and care.
It isn’t easy, but if you are intentional and apply the learnings from this book, you can make the most of your dollars and be more successful with your family finances, even while dealing with the realities of autism and its related expenses.
