Listen "Lifetime Networks with Wendy-Sue Andrew"
Episode Synopsis
We had a great conversation with Wendy-Sue Andrew, UVic’s 2020 Education Distinguished Alumni of the Year.
Wendy-Sue is now the executive director for Lifetime Networks. Living with her son diagnosed with autism and cerebral palsy, she moved from being a full-time teacher to helping out children of parents who like her wondered: What is going to happen when the parents are no longer there to support their children? What could they do to have their children on the autism spectrum engage and connect with people to create lasting relationships that will support them through life? Lifetime Networks is now helping over 400 people connect and become more independent.
