Autism Stories: Lindy Treece

"What I find a lot with the autistic community, is that it's really hard for us to break through that, what I nicknamed, the puzzle piece ceiling. There are just so many spaces that are designed to not have autistic input, that it can be really distressing and exhausting having to push against them all the time," says Lindy Treece. Lindy joins this episode of Autism Stories to discuss her activism, why she prefers to to be called an activist instead of a self-advocate, and what led her pursue a masters degree in social work.
