Support families with bilingual parent guidance

Parents often leave appointments with questions that continue at home. Clear Russian–English materials can help families return to guidance after consultations — during daily routines, school conversations, therapy planning, and moments when new questions come up.

About this story

For many families, developmental care does not end when an appointment is over.

Parents may need to remember what a specialist explained, practice a strategy at home, prepare for a school meeting, or understand what the next step means inside California’s care system.

Sunny Nest Learning Hub is being prepared as a bilingual English–Russian space for ABA therapy, speech therapy, sensory integration support, childcare, parent education, and system navigation.

Parent education is part of that model. Families need information they can understand, keep, and return to — especially when they are navigating diagnosis, therapy goals, home support, and practical decisions in two languages.

This part of the campaign supports Russian–English materials that help connect what parents hear during consultations with what they continue doing at home.

What this support covers

Your support helps create Russian–English materials for parent programs connected to Sunny Nest Learning Hub. The materials will help explain:

  • Diagnosis and developmental support basics
  • Therapy goals and home strategies
  • Parent group topics and follow-up resources
  • Practical next steps families can use outside appointments

Goal: $1,000

Why support is needed now

Families need guidance they can understand, keep, and use again.

A conversation with a specialist can be helpful, but parents often need something to return to later — when they are trying a routine at home, preparing questions for a school meeting, or explaining next steps to another family member.

  • When a family doesn’t understand the system, support can feel out of reach. Sunny Nest was created to make that first step clearer — for children who need care, and for parents who need guidance in a language they understand.
