Episode Synopsis

Are you looking to understand better what autism is and how it impacts people who are autistic? Then this episode is exactly the one for you. Today’s episode is all about defining the ways that autism can affect people who are autistic and also what you can do to be an advocate and ally to the autistic community. Today is the last day of Autism Acceptance Month, but that doesn’t mean that our willingness to learn and support the autistic community should come to an end.
