06: Navigating an Autism Diagnosis: The Nonprofit Sparked by a Mother's Determination

After an autism diagnosis, many parents struggle with finding services not only for their children, but for themselves and their families. Meet Jamila Tucker-Rulero, a Mom from Philadelphia who didn't know where to turn after her son was diagnosed with autism. When she couldn't find the supports she needed, her determination led her to start Autism R.E.C., an organization that provides family supports, assessment, and skills development for children with autism. Tune into this episode to be inspired by Jamila's determination as a mother who wouldn't stop until her son and other children like him got the services they needed.
