Kadin McElwain is an autistic college student in Ohio and is an advocate for autism awareness throughout the state. April is Autism Awareness month and to help promote the month, Kadin joined me to discuss his journey, how he was told that he wouldn't be able to live a normal life as an adult because of his autism. But he was able to prove those who doubted him wrong time and time again. HIs goal now is to help other people with autism get the help they need to thrive.
