“This (MAITS Guide for Parents) is a very significant publication for those working in disadvantaged settings with the parents of children presenting with motor, cognitive and behavioural disabilities. It can be considered an essential guide for all professionals who are involved in CBHR experiences. In conclusion this manual is highly recommended.“
