Publisher Description: Want to learn some effective ways to lead for your autistic child from a seasoned expert? In Autism & Leadership: Learning to Lead for Your Autistic Child, Dr. Sharon Link discusses autism, leadership, and advocacy all within the context of raising her own autistic son, Jim. Jim is now 18 years old, and against all odds, he lives on his own in an apartment with his two therapy dogs. Everyone said he would end up in a group home, but by employing the strategies discussed in the book, Dr. Sharon was able to effectively champion her son and those around him to transform those outcomes. After reading this short, approachable book, you will see greater potential in you and your child to overcome similar obstacles. |
