Carol Tatom | Community Health Worker & Operations Director | Life Skills Autism Academy
As a parent of a child with autism, our guest Carol Tatom was motivated to become a human services professional and advocate for other families sharing the same experiences and challenges as her family.
In Part 1, Carol unpacks what she has learned about herself, her daughter, and the wisdom she has gained since her daughter's diagnosis. She shares how the community she supports works together like a network to help find resources for families and kids across Texas and around the country.
Let’s talk about it.
