Our Mission

What these authors have in common are their commitments to the fields in which Brookes publishes. Commitments such as

• Helping children and adults with disabilities lead fulfilling and self-directed lives
  
  
• Ensuring early intervention for children with special needs and children at risk
  
  
• Preparing educators for the challenges they face in today's inclusive classrooms
  
  
• Providing professionals with research-based theory and practice (because one without the other just isn't enough)

Brookes is committed to each of those goals as a company, and we show it in our attention to the details. Every manuscript we publish undergoes an extensive review process and careful editing before it becomes a bound book. We work hard to understand the needs of our authors and customers by talking with them in person at professional conferences in the U.S. and abroad each year. And we value every author and customer because you're all important contributors to the lives of the children and adults you care for and work with.
