Me: I am Pete Resler, a dad of two boys with special needs. My wife and I have been swimming upstream in the special needs world since 2000 and our life is challenging; like any parents, just a little different. Professionally, I’m a storyteller and editor, helping businesses and authors communicate through my consulting business in Northern California. Because of our kids, we’ve met a lot of incredible people along the way, both incredibly good and incredibly bad.

My blog: With this blog I’m telling stories of the incredibly good people. My mission is to change perceptions about people with special needs by telling purely positive stories about them, and to inspire others to embrace, encourage and support the special needs community by telling the stories of their champions.

You can help: I have an incredible network of parents and caregivers who I count on for inspiration, but I’m always looking for new ideas. If you know someone you think should be featured, anywhere in the world, shoot me a note at specialopstories@gmail.com.
