At AskStellaNow.org, we listen closely to what parents tell us. Over and over, we hear the challenges, the stress, and the hopes that come with raising a child with special needs. That’s why we’ve started building simple, practical apps—tools designed to make your journey just a little easier. Each one is inspired by real families and created to meet everyday needs in a clear and useful way. And we’re not stopping here! If you can dream up an app or resource that would help you and other parents, we’d love to hear from you.
Just drop me a line at dave@thegearfoundation.org - your ideas could shape the next tool we create.

A tool designed to help you organize your observations about your child's behavior. It can be a helpful starting point for conversations with healthcare professionals.
Every child has a story worth sharing—and sometimes the best way to help schools, churches, or community groups understand your child is with something simple, clear, and personal.
That’s why we created the Personal Fact Sheet Creator, a free tool that allows parents to quickly build a one-page introduction for their child. With just a few easy questions, you can generate a colorful, personalized PDF that includes:
Key facts about your child’s personality, strengths, and needs
Bubble-style text that can be moved around the page to keep your child’s picture front and center
A clean format you can download, print, and share with teachers, caregivers, and community leaders
The ability to skip any question—so the sheet is never too busy and only includes what feels right for your family
Why is this helpful? Because whether it’s the first day of school, a new Sunday class, or joining a sports team, people want to connect—but they may not always know how. This fact sheet helps them start on the right foot.
