Yaldei Shluchei HaRebbe, which provides financial support and appropriate programming to Shluchim raising children with special-needs, presents a podcast series on parenting.
The monthly podcast covers a range of topics in the areas of education, family dynamics and shalom bayis and is aired on Community News Service COLlive.com.
The podcast, donated by Rabbi Avrohom Meir and Chaya Shuman of Buffalo, NY, features Rabbanim, educators, parents and mental health professionals.
It is presented by Rabbi Dr. Yosef Shagalow, a Chabad Shliach and a psychologist in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and a father of a young adult with special needs.
He is the owner and director of clinics in the Twin Cities specializing in DBT therapy for the past 15 years and maintains a private practice working with individual clients. Along with his work as a psychologist, Rabbi Dr. Shagalow runs the Chabad Minyan of S. Louis Park, MN.
Using his experience, Rabbi Dr. Shagalow touches upon this topic in a short and concise way helping to bring some general application to this topic.

We at Yad HaChazakah-The Jewish Disability Empowerment Center ( yes..frum), led by and for yidden with disabilities decry these terms as segregatory, patronizing, euphemistic, and as encouraging relational inequality between the sagacious able bodied and the chesed hungry people with disabilities who need to cared for and have life decisions made for them .
with respect to shidduchim, if all goes according to plan
we’ll create a weaker inferior race the the special people alongside a superior chesed driven race of the “normal’ who will care for them.
