​

- please look forward to 10/10, which is both the release date of our book and world mental health day!

-we started our mental disorder series with the hopes of striving to make a difference in others' perception of special needs, but felt that our audience was still limited to the 10-15 SNAP members

-as a result, we decided to start an ebook on the most common special needs disorders present in our schools/society and could share the book through various online platforms 

​

-by having kids and teens in the community learn about these disorders through our ebook, we are also promoting education and supporting peoples' desires to learn

​

-the SNAP team invites you to read our book when it is released on 10/10 and help us in our goal of making a positive impact in our community while committing to our causes
