What Autism Means To Me| As A Mom| v.s. A BCBA|

What Autism means to me? Now that’s a loaded question. Because I’ve always worked with individuals on the spectrum in my career and I am the mother of a son with autism, the answer to that change is dynamic. Nevertheless, it is a question that everyone should ask themselves. How much do you know about autism and the individuals that are impacted? During this video, I wanted to share my unique experience with autism in many areas including

· learning history (values and traditions)
· clinical recommendations
· and society’s views.



Whether you are the mother, aunt, grandfather or BCBA of an individual with Autism, the message in this video if for you. This is an opportunity to hear another perspective. You may have thought these same thoughts, or maybe certain views have never crossed your mind. I’m just asking you to take the time to listen.

Bottom line: It should NOT matter what autism means to you as a parent or a clinician. What really matters is what Autism means to the person who uniquely experiences it.
