Listen "EP 15: Do We Need Autistic Accommodations?"

Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we dive deep into the necessity of accommodations for autistic individuals - both in educational and work environments, as well as in everyday life. We explore key concepts like equality vs. equity, and why treating everyone the same doesn't always lead to success for autistic people. Through personal experiences and practical examples, we discuss different types of accommodations, from instructional and environmental changes to support with assessments and social settings. We also talk about how you can implement accommodations for yourself at home. Join us as we break down why accommodations aren't just helpful, but essential for fostering inclusion and supporting neurodiverse needs.Check out our website!https://www.totallyoverthespectrum.ca/Follow us on socials!FB: https://www.facebook.com/groups/totallyoverthespectrumautismdiscussiongroupINSTA: https://www.instagram.com/totallyoverthespectrum/
