80-85% of autistic adults are unemployed or underemployed………………………………………

This is the statistic that keeps me awake at night.

Young autistic adults face immense challenges - and yes, even discrimination - as they enter the workforce.  Paul enters into a lively discussion on this topic with Rebecca Beam, CEO & Founder of Zavikon, an organization dedicated to matching neurodiverse candidates with employers who believe inclusion is the future.

 

Paul and Rebecca discuss the following:

· Common challenges ASD adolescents face as they enter the workforce

· How ASD workers can self-advocate in the workplace

· Small accommodations that supervisors and managers can make on behalf of their neurodiverse workers

· What Dads can do to prepare their kids to enter the workforce
