The Autism in Black Podcast is hosted by Maria Davis-Pierre, LMHC and focuses on all things autism and the black parent experience. Our goal is to educate, support, and empower black parents to advocate not only for their children but themselves as well.

Today we are joined by Shemica Allen who is the Founder of Personalized Learning Solutions, LLC. Shemica talks with us about what parents should know in regards to their rights within the school system. She tells us what to be aware of when it comes to reviewing your child’s IEP and 504 documents. Shemica goes on to tell us what we should be doing this summer to prep for the next academic school year. And she tells us about Due Process.
