New Family-Developed Fair Strengthens People Affected by Autism

James Grosso’s challenges

James Grosso is the father of a five-year-old boy who is on the spectrum, and his family is working to destigmatize autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

The challenges he faces are multilevel and include things such as watching other children and their parents struggle to understand and accept the behavior of his son. He explains how being in public can be tough. When his son has a meltdown, people in public often respond with judgment due to a lack of awareness that his son is on the autism spectrum.
