Abigail Rivera recently joined The Autism Helper Blogging Team. She has shared her perspective as an autistic young adult navigating the world, as Abby was diagnosed with autism at 16. In this episode, she shares how that experience has shaped her. Abby discusses her sensory needs and how she accommodates her sensory challenges. We dive into her self-advocacy and she shares tips for helping others and how to become a better self-advocate. Abby also shares how teachers can better support all struggling learners and create better teacher/student relationships.
