He is a member of the Burbank Advisory Council on Disabilities and was just elected to the Burbank City Council on November 3rd. His son was also diagnosed autistic in 2013, so Konstantine can often be seen navigating the IEP process in his local public school. He also sits in with other parents as an advocate during their IEP meetings. Konstantine works as an in-home support services provider for his son and is always looking for ways to activate disabled individuals in the political process. &nbsp;</p> <p>Website: <a href="https://www.konstantineanthony.com/">https://www.konstantineanthony.com/</a></p> <p>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/wearejusttwodads">https://www.facebook.com/wearejusttwodads</a></p> <p>Instagram: @just_two_dads, @iamshawnfrancis @brianaltounian</p> <p>#justTwoDads #specialneedsparenting #disabilityrightsadvocacy</p>
