Background/aims: This study describes the process of developing video vignettes to meet the parent-expressed need for balanced, meaningful messages about what life may be like for parents who have a child with a disability. Each vignette teaches a general audience salient concepts derived from a grounded theory of the parental process of Rescuing Hope after a child's diagnosis with a developmental disability.

Methods: Using ethnodrama methodology, we completed a secondary analysis of 21 interviews with parents who learned of their child's diagnosis of Down syndrome.

Results: Understanding the grounded theory of Rescuing Hope has the potential to help parents construct meaning and purpose as they adapt to parenting a child with a disability.

Discussion: The short dramatic vignettes may be placed across platforms, settings and partnerships, with relevance for teachers, clinicians, family members, caregivers. Designed for wide distribution, video vignettes may reach the people who most need sense-making support.
