“Individuals on the spectrum have many many strengths such as really good focus and attention to detail, being very productive, very intelligent and they have sometimes very different ways of thinking which are very valuable and needed in this world and the workplace.” My acquaintance, Susan, was recently interviewed for this article about the challenge of finding a job in the Okanagan for those on the autism spectrum. Worth a quick read and considering for your organization! https://lnkd.in/g2KAcE3J
