SHOW NOTES:

At this year’s COPAA conference I met attorney, Lisa Hernandez, at the coffee bar, and in about 3 sentences, she blew my mind on the topic of employment of people with disabilities. I took her card and invited her on the podcast immediately! If your kid is transition-aged (yes, that’s ALL of you in my opinion), you’re going to LOVE thinking about employment through this lens. Lisa continued to enlighten me throughout this episode, and I think I’ll go back and listen to it again with you all to make sure I totally retain everything she’s shared with us! It’s just that good!
