Autistic Adjectives and an I CAN Attitude

Finally the wonderful Chris Varney is on the podcast! Lou and Chris talk about the foundation of the I CAN Network, Chris's life growing up, self acceptance and development of Autistic identity and how he learned that it's more important to be proud of what you CAN do than what you CAN'T! It was also interesting to learn that one of Chris's mentors is Eunice Kennedy Shriver, a well known Kennedy but not so well known disability advocate. If you haven't checked out the I CAN Network for the Autistic person in your life, you're missing out.
