This written interview is SO WELL DONE!! I am so happy that in-depth research is being done for my non-speaking autistic friends. It is definitely worth the read if you want to have a better understanding of autism, their intellectual ability, and challenges, specifically in the non-speaking community. The following link is a video, again worth the watch if you are curious about research being done that shows Letterboarding IS an effective way of communication for non-speakers even though "the powers that be" dismiss it as intellectual thought! As noted in the interview and video, using a letterboard, tablet or keyboard takes YEARS to master independently due to motor control challenges! My letterboarding friends, in which I coach, have been working very hard to get to the skill level of these non-speakers who are shown and discussed. Please do not judge a book by its cover or make assumptions about Autistic Intellect or Social ability. They are uniquely created individuals with A LOT to give!!

- Hope sets the direction of your life (what you place your hope in..)
- Hope always includes expectations
- Hope fixes brokeness

What do you fear? What causes you to want to flee or fight? Be honest! Label it! Now, what can you be grateful for despite your fear? This is where you find joy! Where have you placed your hope? What can you pursue today to enhance your Life?
