Donald Bailey joins us live from the Converge Autism Summit by Springbrook Autism Behavioral Health. He's been on the podcast before talking about his autistic son and the journey he's experienced with him as a child and now an adult. Donald is working on helping him find private housing and continuing to speak at events like this summit to raise awareness about the lifelong journey of parents with children on the spectrum.

A lifelong South Carolinian, Donald began his career in the insurance industry with a focus on financial planning. After working as a financial planner for E. F. Hutton, he founded Donald Bailey & Associates in order to offer independent advice and holistic planning to his clients.

Donald is committed to community involvement, having served on the Board of Trustees at the University of South Carolina (USC) and most recently founding The College Transition Connection, Inc., a non-profit organization whose mission is to help South Carolina colleges create post-secondary programs for young adults who may have an intellectual disability. Donald's son is on the autism spectrum. He is one of the authors of Your Legacy of Care: Providing for Your Special Needs Child Today, Tomorrow & Always and a speaker at the Converge Autism Summits that are held annually by Springbrook Autism Behavioral Health in South Carolina.

For this podcast he joins counselor, Melanie Vann, to discuss his experience as a father of a child with Autism.

Donald holds a degree in Marketing from USC. He and his wife Caroline have two children and three grandchildren and reside in Mt. Pleasant, SC.
