Kadin McElwain:
Currently, I am dedicated to using my voice to speak on behalf of the autistic community.
Additionally, I’ve collaborated with several politicians, businesses, and organizations in order to help bring attention to this cause. Eventually, I hope to work with a non-profit centered around autism in order to help those like me get the resources they deserve.
This community holds a special place in my heart because of the make up of my family. Finding the right resources for our family has been a constant challenge. From practices taught to the providers themselves to insurance and scarcity of services and IEP’s. We have fought the good fight, like many of you.
That’s why I launched Neurodivergent News—a resource for those who help, support, or are neurodivergent. In an age where people are searching for resources online and on the radio it has never been easier to bring together communities.
