SUMMARY:A Conversation About:  Driving with Autism With Andrew Arboe
DESCRIPTION:Join Community Autism Resources for…A Conversation About: Driving with Autism With Andrew Arboe \n \nTransportation has various modes like buses and trains\, while cars are used by the majority. Having transportation improves overall quality of life and independence. Andrew goes over his reason for driving because of how necessary a license was for his college degree. Realizing the limitations it would bring\, Andrew decided to pursue driving\, despite the challenges of driver training and state resources. What helped was going to a driving school where Andrew got confidence from their controlled road lessons. Afterwards\, Andrew found places to use for completing road practice and scheduling his road test. The test came and went\, and he obtained his license. It inspired Andrew to advocate for more public discussion for driving and the advocacy gave him a sense of empowerment. He became empowered to fulfill his employment plans and worked in various schools and nonprofits due to his license. Time will be allotted for questions! \nREGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED….THANK YOU! \nAbout the speaker: Andrew is a self-advocate with a professional work background consisting of public school\, private school\, nonprofits\, and online programs. Andrew is also certified through the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards’ Autism Certification.His current workplaces include FOCUS Center for Autism\, Anderson Center for Autism\, and the Children Hospital of Philadelphia. Andrew is also a public speaker known for talking throughout New England about autism and his personal experiences. Andrew uses the power of storytelling with his personal experiences to provide insights on his specialty topics on autism including transportation and his famous driving topic\, employment\, special education and transition to adulthood. Finally\, Andrew graduated from Manchester Community College with an associate degree as a Disability Specialist. Andrew is attending Charter Oak State College for a bachelor’s degree in psychology.
