Publications

Through our connection with PLAN Canada, PIN has available for sale the following publications:

Etmanski, Al (2000) 'A Good Life': For you and your relative with a disability.  B.C.: Orwell Cove & PLAN

"Read this book and the light bulb goes on in a blaze of clarity.  What we want for our sons and daughters doesn't have to depend on the whims of social services and funding programs; it depends on families regaining control of simple, fundamental questions: what do we want? And what is a good life? It's a profound shift in the way we help our children define themselves in our families, our communities.  This book is joyful.  It is also sad, difficult, practical, funny, passionate and profound just like a good life.  It's clear we don't have to be recipients - we can be creators."

Karen Melberg Schwier, parent and author of Sexuality: Your Sons and Daughters with Intellectual Disabilities

Available for AUS $66.00

Kuntz, Ted (2005) 'Peace Begins With Me': An inspirational journey to end suffering and restore joy.  B.C.: Ted Kuntz

Ted is currently President of PLAN Canada and a psychotherapist in private practice in Vancouver, Canada. Yet the wisdom he shares in this book didn't come from his formal training, rather it came from his own personal journey as the father of a child with a disability.

"Exactly what many people consumed by the chaos of today's world are searching for - to find Peace and to keep it."

Ross Buchanan, CEO, Strategic Results International

Available for AUS $33.00

These books are sold as a small revenue-raising initiative, to assist people with understanding the philosophies which guide PIN and, ultimately, to encourage families to take control.
