あらすじ・解説
Join hosts Heather and Steve on Finding Common Ground as they sit down with two powerful voices for the IDD community: dedicated social worker Carrie Corby and university expert Dr. John Keesler. Despite not having a personal connection to IDD, both have chosen to devote their careers to supporting those with autism and other developmental differences, bringing fresh perspectives on systemic gaps that often go unnoticed.
This candid discussion takes surprising turns as they break down a real-life scenario one of our listeners is navigating right now—offering insights, strategies, and a framework you can apply when you face similar challenges.
With a career spanning state services, nonprofits, and now private practice, Carrie brings unique insights into trauma-informed care and the transformative impact of giving neurodivergent individuals a platform: “When we give individuals a voice, we give them dignity—and that can transform lives.” Dr. Keesler, drawing on extensive research and a commitment to systemic reform, highlights the vital transition from school to adult services, emphasizing, “Trauma-informed care isn’t just a method; it’s a necessary mindset that acknowledges the whole person beyond their diagnosis.”
In this episode, explore the real challenges families encounter in navigating complex service systems, discover practical advocacy insights, and gain a deeper understanding of the power of community-driven support. If you’ve ever felt like the systems meant to help might be holding us back, this episode is for you.
