Jodi Hansen, mother of a 26-year-old profoundly autistic son, shares her lived experience while making a plea for multidisciplinary care access across the United States.
"The ideal change and the biggest change and something I dream big about is that every state would have a multidisciplinary clinic or hospital for our kids. Our kids are human beings. They deserve a neurologist, immunologist, rheumatologist, etc. They need to have a team of doctors. Just like we need a village to raise them, we need a system in the medical system that works."
