In addition to her work with neurodiverse children and their parents, Sara holds virtual and in person training for businesses, school districts, and organizations of all sizes to support their mission to be safe, empowering environments for those with neurodiversities.
Business Consulting
You may not realize you’re losing clients. But now that 1 in 6 children has a diagnosis such as ADHD, autism, or another disability, your organization has to choose what’s more important: carrying on without knowing how to communicate and support those with autism/developmental challenges (or their caregivers, who are overwhelmed), OR embracing the fact that the future looks different and preparing for it now allows your business to outlast others in the market. 1 in 44 individuals has autism and the number grows each year. What do you hope to gain by waiting? Book a consultation call with Sara so that your business can continue to thrive while making a positive impact for those living with disabilities.
Consulting For Municipalities and Organizations
Businesses aren’t the only ones facing change. Most municipal organizations are still functioning using outdated protocols and are unequipped to support those with autism and neurodiversities.
For example, a local police department in Long Island was recently called 4 times in 7 days to rescue nonverbal children with home who’d eloped from home, unaware of the danger it posed. 4 times in 7 days in a small town, not a big city. The police confessed to one of the good samaritans assisting them that they didn’t want to bring the children to the police station, as it didn’t have a welcoming place for the children to feel comfortable, so they drove the children around in their cruisers while waiting to reunite them with family, in hopes CPS wouldn’t be needed. I can’t emphasize enough that the police reporting to these calls were well intended and eager to help, but weren’t empowered with the tools or skills to elicit trust from these children or communicate with them in any effective way.
Developing the ability to support individuals with autism and disabilities, as well as their overwhelmed families whose time and attention are often spread too thin, empowers these organizations to be strong leaders and guardians of safety in the communities they serve. Where will you be in one year from now if you choose to ignore your community’s changing needs? You won’t be in the same position you’re in now. You’ll be even more strained, knowing that you can’t safeguard and support the citizens you’re supposed to be helping. On the other hand, what’s possible for you if you start taking action today?
