I am the mother of a 17-year-old son who has Asperger's syndrome (on the Autism Spectrum). I "live" special needs caring, advocacy, training, patience and love "24/7". Also, I grew up with extended family members with developmental disabilities. I have worked as an independent living skills trainer for adults with developmental disabilities and a relief staff person at a residential home in a community in the Seattle area. I worked closely with the special education teachers at a local high school when I coordinated referrals for student mental health services.
