Positively Autistic - Jeanette's Autism Show

Jeanette's Autism Show is a place for discussions around all things Autism, from advocacy, to parenting, employment, love and relationships, books and conferences, sensory issues, anxiety and education and everything else in between. The show is hosted by Autistic author, advocate, artist and Government official Jeanette Purkis. Jeanette has guests form all walks of life who have something interesting and helpful to say about the issues faced by Autistic folks and their families. As this show is pre-recorded, you cannot access the chat room.
