“I believe in a society where acceptance, independence, and integration should be the benchmarks. Family Network on Disabilities allows me to help accomplish those goals on a daily basis.”

“Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love/’ is a quote from Mother Teresa that has long been a foundational way of life for our family. I have spent the greater part of the last twenty years as a full-time stay-at-home mom to two amazing young women and a community volunteer, working in myriad positions where I could share my gifts and serve. In my life’s experience, many people have extended hands and hope to my family and me through challenging times, and through my work at FND, my goal is to be a light, a support, a help, even in the smallest of ways, with great love to others.I feel honored to be part of the FND family.

“I believe strongly that you are the best advocate for your child and my goal is to provide you with the skills to effectively communicate with your school district.

Success is in the ability to choose battles wisely, understand constraints, and seek ways to add a little sugar, to the relationships you create.”

“My name is Tosha Littles and I am the Multi-Cultural Parent Resource Specialist for PSN. I received my B.S. in Health Information Management from Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University in 2004 and continued graduate work, receiving advanced certifications. Throughout the early 2000’s, autism was on the forefront of news and media. It was a turning point in my life when I became a mother with a child on the autism spectrum. It was during this time that I developed a passion for persons with varying abilities. I have volunteered within the school system and worked with community partners focusing on topics such as self-governance, advocacy and social opportunities for persons with varying abilities.
