At Academica Media, we believe that education must go beyond the curriculum.

In honor of national autism awareness month, Lily concludes her interview with autism expert Dr. Jennifer Durocher. Dr. Durocher is a Clinical Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of Miami and the Clinical Director of the Center for Autism & Related Disabilities. In this episode, Dr. Durocher speaks about the three very important skills that are needed when working with individuals with autism. She also provides online resources for administrators, educators, and parents to reach out to for guidance.

The Center for Autism & Related Disabilities is an organization at the University of Miami that provides support for schools and families.
