Keeping Pace
Henderson, Nancy
Exceptional Parent, v38 n11 p40-42 Nov 2008
This article describes the struggles of two tough moms who team up to start their own company. Fed up with a lack of stylish, properly-fitting shoes for their children with cerebral palsy, they established "Keeping Pace" which currently offers a selection of stylish girls' and boys' athletic sneakers and casual dress shoes for boys, all sold through hospitals, orthotists, specialty footwear shoe stores, and distributors in the U.S., Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Australia, and the Caribbean.
