Shari Goldberg joins us to discuss her mission driven work inspired by raising her son Noah with autism. Seeing first hand the lack of support, information, and community she helped bring Autism Speaks to Northeast Ohio. Along the way she realized the lack of long term resources for adults with special needs, Shari sets out to create real lasting change through Creative Living for Life-a community focused on maximizing independence with lifelong support. In this episode she shares the realities parents face, the gaps in support, and her vision to a future where every person with special needs can live with dignity and purpose for the rest of their lives. This is a story of a mother, an advocate and a leader transforming heartbreak into hope.
