"Jack’s Basket has positively impacted so many of my patients and their families by celebrating the birth of babies with Down syndrome and providing support, up-to-date information and community resources to parents at the time of diagnosis. Carissa does an exceptional job speaking to medical team members in a narrative fashion, telling the story of Jack’s arrival in such a way that you can picture yourself there. She brings light to the parent’s perspective of how the medical team impacts families’ experiences at the time of diagnosis, and in turn reflects on what parents would benefit from hearing."
