Episode description

Different doesn't mean bad, and there isn't one "normal way" of being. Neurodiversity means recognizing and celebrating the strengths of different brains - and how they work. Autism is one of those ways that brains connect and interact with the world a little differently, and represents a constellation of varied skills, abilities and challenges.

With support from Teen Link, Pathlight Mood & Anxiety Center and Carter Subaru, C89.5 fm joins Seattle Children's Hospital to present this youth-led conversation about Autism. 

Listen and learn as Nathan Hale High School students in C89.5's radio class explore The Autism Spectrum, with the help of Seattle Children's Dr. Jen Gerdts and Disability Rights Activist Ivanova Smith.

Coping 101 is an ongoing series that destigmatizes mental health from a teen's perspective. No matter our age or background we all face challenges, and there are healthy ways to cope. Get started with more episodes and vital resources hosted at c895.org/coping101
