Author and Licensed Master Social Worker, Barbara Boroson, joins Prisma Lopez-Marin to chat about her book The General Education Teacher’s Guide to Autism: Essential Answers to Key Questions, how she helps educators work effectively with students on the spectrum, and how she bridges the communication chasms between educators and families.

● Her take on the neurodiversity movement and the increase in acceptance of autism

● Why it’s important to create a partnership between educators and parents

● How she works with schools and general educators to ensure that everyone stays prepared for students on the autism spectrum
