Title II National Day of Action (August 29, 2017)
The Autism Spectrum ranges from "Level 1" (requiring some support) through "Level 3" (requiring very substantial support). My son, David M. Nisson, PhD, is at "Level 2" (requiring substantial support). He dreamed of earning college degrees in Experimental Physics, but only wealthy "Twice Exceptional" students could afford this. It's against my religious values to ignore "Talents", so, with my support, David went on to complete a Ph.D. at UC Davis Physics and contribute to the all-important world of scientific research. This blog serves both as a reference for the increasing numbers of parents following in my footsteps, and a warning that in addition to advocating for academic accommodations and arranging behavior programs, parents must also spend time studying medical issues that seem minor during childhood, and to
participate now in the reform efforts of crucial national agencies like SSA and HUD, and those of your city, county and state government to protect your sons' or daughters' futures.
