from Staring Down the Storm: Autism Advocacy in America · host Tabitha Zeigler

For Part Three of our conversation with Sarah McCorkle, our discussion centers on autism, genetic testing, and the emotions and ethical considerations faced by parents. We look at the fear of misuse of genetic data, distrust in political figures like RFK, government involvement in medical decisions, and the balance between scientific advancement and privacy concerns. The importance of community support, parental advocacy, and the need for society to become more inclusive of autistic individuals is paramount. Our conversation also touches on broader social and political issues, emphasizing the importance of human rights and the need for systemic change to protect vulnerable populations.How to reach Sarah:Website ⁠⁠We Rock the Spectrum: Kids Gym for all Kids - Carmel, IN⁠⁠on ⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠on ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠on ⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠Contact Tabitha:[email protected]
