One of the benefits of the work I do is I get to witness the incredible transformation of caregivers. Today’s guest, Jo Garofalo is a caregiver I have watched go from being alone and pushed in different directions (none of which worked) in advocating for her daughter to an informed advocate who has the information, knowledge, and confidence to move forward in getting the accommodations needed for her daughter’s success.  

In this episode, we learn about that journey and the unique opportunities she has had to bring not only her adoption story and advocate for change through their Voice in a Million project, but also the recently released documentary FASD The Hidden Disability.  

Jo used the resources she had and the skills she learned to build a support team and secure a new school placement for her daughter. Whether you are looking to be inspired for advocacy for your family or community, this podcast explores the power of facts, knowledge, community, and telling stories that can create change and success for ourselves and our loved ones with FASD.
