  • Abstract
    Research involving families of children with disabilities has focused mainly on parents, particularly mothers, but the extended family, including grandparents, should also be examined. This review synthesized the literature from 1990 to 2013 regarding the subject of grandparents raising grandchildren, particularly grandchildren with disabilities. We also examine sources of support and family quality of life of grandparents raising grandchildren. Implications for those working with families in schools as well as suggestions for future research are presented.
