Donna wanted to do something special on the Brighten Up Pod for April, the month internationally recognized as Autism Acceptance Month. The topic is near and dear to her, so she wanted to provide greater insight, inspiration, and hope for families affected by it and all who wish to know more about the world of autism.
In this episode, Donna sits down with Lora Carpenter and her daughter, Loryn Carpenter. Lora is the Executive Director of Beyond the Spectrum (BTS), a facility that provides care for students with developmental disorders from ages 5-22. Her son, Scott, developed Regressive Autism at 18 months, so she was propelled into a life of compassionate service after having lived in the world of Autism herself. Loryn is the Communications Specialist at BTS. She too, was affected by becoming an advocate for her older brother Scott early on in her life. She has also become the host of the facility's podcast, the Helping Families Go Beyond Podcast, in hopes of providing families with additional resources in a convenient and inviting format.
Beyond The Spectrum is based in Sarasota, Florida. It is on the cutting edge of psychiatric treatment: it serves both as an accredited education center as well as a therapeutic clinic specializing in care for children with Autism, Down Syndrome, ADHD, and other related developmental disorders. Their objective is to work with students and their families to provide actionable goals with individualized care and judgment-free services that bring everyone closer towards fulfilling lives.
