Reviews

""This is an incredible resource! It is exactly the sort of tool I have been looking for to share with employers when having these conversations about creating a neuroinclusive workspace."" Claire Kingstad, young adult ""This guidebook is an extremely helpful tool in learning how to work with autistic folks. It's a good reminder that we need to embrace diversity and be sure to treat everyone the way they want to be treated. Not everyone learns the same way, retains information the same way, or responds to others the same way. This guide reminds us to be curious and open-minded, especially when working with autistic employees."" Tammy Cohen Director of Human Resources Ordway Center for the Performing Arts, St Paul, MN
