Silent No Longer by Community Options Founder Robert Stack Makes USA Today Bestsellers List
October 09, 2025
Princeton, NJ – Community Options is proud to announce that Silent No Longer: Advancing the Fight for Disability Rights, written by President and CEO Robert Stack, has officially been listed on the USA Today Bestsellers List.
This national recognition underscores the book’s growing impact and the urgent need to reform how our country supports people with disabilities.
In Silent No Longer, Stack exposes decades of systemic mistreatment in the disability industry, from profit-driven private equity firms to unequal funding and deceptive portrayals of care quality. Drawing on more than 40 years of experience, Stack offers both a firsthand account and a roadmap for change.
“This honor is not about me, it’s about the millions of people with disabilities, their families and the advocates who have been fighting for justice and dignity,” said Robert Stack, President and CEO of Community Options. “My hope is that this recognition will bring even more attention to the urgent need for reform and inclusion in our nation’s systems of care.”
Part exposé and part call to action, Silent No Longer identifies twelve actionable steps that policymakers, funding agencies and care providers can take to improve lives and strengthen community-based services.
The book has been praised by advocates, professionals and families alike for its compelling stories, data-driven insights and unwavering focus on restoring dignity to those most vulnerable.
As the founder of Community Options, Stack has long been a pioneer in creating inclusive, community-based housing and employment opportunities for people with disabilities. Since 1989, the organization has grown to support over 7,000 individuals and their families across multiple states, advancing the belief that all people, regardless of ability, deserve the opportunity to live and work in their communities with choice and independence.
Silent No Longer is available through major booksellers nationwide, with all proceeds supporting individuals with disabilities. For more information or to purchase the book, visit www.robertstack.org.
