The featured guest on my program is fellow Hoosier Adria Nassim, a supporter of autism. Adria Nassim was born and raised in Floyd County, Indiana. She was diagnosed with a learning disability at age 5, moderate cerebral palsy around the time of birth, and subsequently an autism spectrum disorder around age 20. She is now living in Bloomington, Indiana, and works part-time at the Indiana Institute on Disability and Community on the IU Bloomington campus. She gives college students their special lectures on topics including autism and learning disabilities in kids, teens, and young adults. Adria also writes for the Bloom Magazine section that focuses on autism and developmental impairments as well as the quarterly magazine of the Indiana Resource Center for Autism (a division of the IIDC). Thomas "Mr. T.," a yellow Labrador member of the Indiana Canine Assistant Network (ICAN) who has been trained to assist persons with autism and other disabilities, is an additional support dog that she has. Welcome to Autism Rocks and Rolls, my intriguing friend.
