Embracing Autism

IRL – Are Our Kids’ Rights at Risk? — with Jean Mayer


Listen Later

What happens if the protections our children depend on suddenly change? In this episode, we sit down with Jean Mayer, co-creator of the Moms Talk Autism podcast, to unpack the Texas v. Becerra lawsuit and the growing pressures on Section 504 — the law that ensures vital supports for students with disabilities. We tackle the tough questions parents are asking: Could this lawsuit weaken our kids’ rights in schools? Why is it still so hard to talk openly about disability? And what can we do right now to protect our children’s access to accommodations? If you’re worried about your child’s future in the education system, you won’t want to miss this powerful conversation.

Update: Since recording, the constitutional challenge to Section 504 has been dropped and the case is on hold, but parts of the lawsuit remain active and disability protections are still at risk.
