Autism Adulth Healthcare Needs Serious Repair

How can we do a better job by our communicationally-challenged citizens, children, neighbors? As we become more and more of an inclusive society and we really start to see all the autistic people among us, we are going to have to do better by them in terms of understanding, connecting, engaging. In my case, I needed to be able to read Nat and get him to tell me what was wrong. This piece of mine — an excerpt from the forthcoming book on Autism Adulthood — came out today on WBUR/Boston’s NPR affiliate.

I couldn’t wait to see how your story ended- I know your entire book will be like that for me. My husband is sick of hearing me talk about it so glad it comes out soon and so happy for you!
