Description

For today's episode I'm sitting with a chocolate shop owner local to me in North Carolina. This isn't just any old chocolatier - this is also a place specifically started to hire employees with disabilities, including autism spectrum disorder.

Dan Friedman is the owner of Special Treats located in Chapel Hill, NC, and he's also an autism dad. Special Treats sells products created by small businesses led by or consisting of employees with disabilities as well as creates and sells their own special treats.

How do we prepare for and navigate adulthood? What are the resources out there that can help me? How can we all work together to promote the success of autistic people in the workplace, community, and at school? This podcast is an extension of the Autism Grown Up Resource Center for autistic adults, families, and professionals. Note that the needs of the autism community are HUGE and we are a small non-profit just getting started with resources. Not every episode may be for you and we aim to provide ideas and suggestions for individualization. Pick and choose what you need!
