GoalDlocks is a company that aims to provide a voice, platform, and community to parents and advocates of minorities with disabilities. As we grow in acceptance in our country we find the basic level of acceptance of even our finest underrepresented groups couldn’t even come close to those that are disabled. There is a void there that GoalDlocks aims to not only fill, but to make it just right for all that are affected.
Andrea Reid is a fellow New Yorker, who is raising her autistic twins in Maryland. They are both 18 years old and she has had one very insightful journey on what it took to not only raise two autistic boys, but to do it as a single mom with their father out of the picture. Her testimony is powerful, and moving, please enjoy it.
Andrea is also a published author with books such as One Tear at a time, and Growing up with autism. Find her books on amazon and barnes and noble.

Dom and Alex had to navigate some tough waters the last couple years trying to get the best resources, doctors, therapists, and schooling for their children, and have felt behind the 8 ball more than once. It doesn't help that theyre a black family, that has to raise their children in a world that is already skeptical of people that look like them.
