REEL's mission is to support Bay Area 2e kids by providing resources and community support for parents and educators. For those who are new to REEL, our past Parent Speaker Event recordings are available on our YouTube channel. This vast resource contains dozens of free recordings with speakers sharing their insights and expertise on a wide variety of topics, including advice on anxiety, suggestions for writing difficulty, information about slow processing speed, and much more. You can also visit our website (reel2e.org) for a list of our future events and many more resources, including an info sheet to share with educators and an extensive REEL Parents Guide to IEPs for Twice-Exceptional Students - CA Bay Area Edition. REEL also provides educator workshops, so please introduce us to your school!

Since this group began, we have enjoyed seeing the support our community members have provided one another. We learn so much from you and look forward to our journeys together!

Best,

REEL team
