076 -When You’re an Autistic SpEd Teacher & YOU Can’t Get Accommodations at Work with Carrin Gilmore

Carrin Gilmore is a Special Education Teacher and Autistic. She is sharing some of the challenges she has faced in the workforce trying to advocate for her own accommodations. She recently resigned from her job because HER accommodation requests weren’t being met. Join us for this eye opening conversation about silent workforce issues most aren’t speaking about in Human Resources.

Carrin is an incredible self advocate and shares some of the ways she has found accommodation solutions in her life and how she sets boundaries for what she just won’t allow in her life.

GUEST Contact INFO:

Carrin Gilmore, I am an Autistic Speducator, working in schools as an Educational Specialist. I work with parents, teachers, and staff writers and create accommodations and modifications for students with disabilities. I've worked with Kindergarteners to middle schoolers. I got my MA in Education with a specialization in 2020 from the University of the Pacific. I've worked with Autism Career Pathways, a nonprofit working to nerodiversify the workforce by empowering both the employee and employer, since 2019. I am proud to say I am the Secretary of the board of directors. I joined the non-profit when I learned that I am a rarity among Autistic adults because I have a career. I want to change that. I truly want to help others like myself gain meaningful employment, while still figuring out my own accommodations and modifications. My ultimate dream would be to help HR's better implement accommodations and modifications for nerodiverse peoples.
