What happens when autistic women take the mic during Autism Awareness Month—on their terms?

In this Social Saturdays episode, we’re joined by powerhouse advocate, educator, and fellow autistic woman Sara Bradford for a real conversation on shifting the narrative of Autism Awareness Month from external education to internal empowerment.

  • Insight into the SJ Childs Global Network and its mission for family support

  • Ways the Summit embraces entrepreneurship, tech, and inclusive education
