Life With The Spectrum
Community Collab!
Do you know everything your community offers it's citizens? Irene Barton, Executive Director, with Cobb Collaborative sits down to discuss what Cobb County Georgia offers up. Mental health tool kits for people with disabilities as well as the LGBTQIA+ community, access to literacy help for young children and adults alike, and ways to engage civically. From training to partnering with local agencies, there is a reason so many Georgians call Cobb County home.
Keystone Village is Coming!
Keystone Village is coming to Forsyth county and is going to be an amazing community for our amazing adults! Founders Beth Burns and Tammy Miller have spearheaded this passion project into fruition! Private living can run families into the ground financially but at Keystone Village their mission will be to provide affordable housing with packages and programs that make financial sense for folks that live there and the families that support them. You want to watch this!
Snap, Tap, Zap!
Think about how many ways you are stressed out: Emotionally, mentally, physically, spiritually. Now imagine if you could Snap, Tap, and Zap it all away. I had the pleasure of sitting down with Christine Bernat, Life Coach and creator of Snap, Tap, Zap for an eye opening opportunity to start managing that stress as young as one and two years old. Christine is offering extra special treats when you mention you saw it here.
Ryan's Heart!
Ryan Lee, self advocate, is making a difference through his articles on awareness and acceptance. Ryan is a leader here in Atlanta helping to make work places more inclusive and understanding. In this episode we all get to take a sneak peek into this young advocates journey or like I like to say "Ryan's World!"
Grab a Racket, Love!
For most children with disabilities and challenges adaptive sports allow them to take part in sports they are interested in and keep them off their devices even if for a short time. We sit down with Jim Hamm, Executive Director, at Special POPS Tennis to discuss the benefits of taking it to the courts with free tennis lessons in more than 18 locations around the metro. From gaining a new skill set to making friends, and having fun, Georgia has one of the largest tennis communities in the world and Special Pops is eager to help.
Many have heard her speak, watched videos, and have read her books. We launch into 2023 with Temple Grandin. We find out how she feels about ABA therapy, talk about the different types of minds featured in her latest book and ask the fun questions too. With a full calendar of speaking engagements coming up this year, I am honored that she takes time to speak with us today!
For more great episodes!
