Jane Strauss - Just Your Average Autistic Family

AWN Radio with Host Sharon daVanport - Autism Women's Network

Jane Strauss joins us today to talk about her adult diagnosis and how the issue of under-recognition of females is omnipresent, her dynamic family and how she navigated the system to ensure their successes, the struggles and triumphs in her family's pursuit for religious inclusion in the Jewish community, and how her artwork is an ever-present part of her existence. Jane offers her support and expertise to the autism community in many ways as an advocate as well as in her encouragement of others to use their talents for self-sustainability.
