A manifesto for people like us...

Here in The Different Lane, living with the dual diagnosis of developmental disabilities and mental health disorders sets us apart from other families. Most manifestos only state beliefs - this one comes with resources.

We Deserve Better Than Just Surviving...

That's one of the 10 beliefs stated in this manifesto. Here are a couple more:

  • Every member of our family has needs to be met
  • We are allowed to feel whatever emotions we experience

In this free 24-page PDF book, you'll read about these and 7 other beliefs that are vital to the success and wellbeing of families like ours.

But this manifesto delivers more than just beliefs. You'll also find:

  • Links to 24 online resources - 13 supportive websites/organizations and 11 empowering books
  • A sneak peek at my upcoming new program - the Family Balance Plan - and the opportunity to be involved as a founding member!

I'm Tanya Savko - Behavior Consultant, family coach, and the mother of two young adult sons, one who has autism, epilepsy, and bipolar disorder. I have worked with families experiencing various types of developmental disabilities – those with little kids, teens, and adults – and mental health disorders since 2008. I created The Different Lane as a way to offer more support - and reach more people who need it.
