April is World Autism Month, a time when families, educators and organizations advocate for the 1 in 127 persons globally who have autism. For military families raising children with autism, the challenges are especially complex. Today on Conversations, Melissa Montana is thrilled to welcome retired U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Jaime B. Parent and his wife, educator and autism specialist Elizabeth “Tracy” Parent. Jaime and Tracy have lived this reality and in their new book, “The Mission at Home”, they provide the nuts-and-bolts guidance families urgently need to navigate military life with a child on the autism spectrum.
