What People are Saying about Areva Martin and The Everyday Advocate...

"If your family is facing special challenges, Areva Martin's new book is the definitive guide for getting the best care for your child. Her personal and professional experience make her the GO TO expert on autism."

Dr. Phil McGraw
Author of Six #1 New York Times Bestsellers
Host, Executive Producer of The Dr. Phil Show


"The Everyday Advocate is a great resource for parents who are looking for support. As a mom, a lawyer, the head of a non-profit, a business owner, and now an author, Areva Martin has helped simplify many of the complications that parents of children with autism face."

Suzanne Wright
Co-founder of Autism Speaks


"A stand-out resource for families caring for children with special needs. While sharing her personal experience as a parent of an autistic child, Areva Martin outlines clear advocacy strategies and provides resources and inspirations for families seeking guidance in a world where advocating for your child may at first appear overwhelming."

Dr. Jim Sears, M.D.
Pediatrician, Author
Co-host of the hit nationally syndicated television show, The Doctors


"The work that Areva Martin is doing is especially critical to families of color. The Everyday Advocate is a "must read" for any parent or caregiver living with a child with autism. It conveys that taking a stand to safeguard the child's rights to treatment, services, and human kindness is a priority."

Holly Robinson Peete
Actress and Co-founder of The HollyRod Foundation


"Areva Martin's powerful book speaks to an important but too often overlooked truth. Everyone has an obligation to be an advocate for justice for those who are unable to advocate for themselves. But they must have an advocate of their own capable of showing them the way. In Areva Martin, those who seek to defend the rights of autistic children now have their champion."

David B. Wilkins
Lester Kissel Professor of Law, Harvard Law School

Hi Areva,

I wanted to connect with you and ask for your feedback. I recently did my first on-camera interview for the children's book on child sexual abuse prevention that I wrote, My Body Belongs to Me. Please let me know what you think when you have some time.

Thanks in advance.

Kamy, I am so looking forward to sharing the stories with you and She Writes. I did an interview this morning with Santita Jackson of Chicago. I told her about the project and she was so excited.

Areva, if you keep track of the response to your call for personal stories in relation to The Everyday Advocate, I'd love to do a post about it on She Writes. Will you let me know how it goes, and maybe I can do something in connection with World Autism Day? So glad you are here.
