Our Current Issue
Our Guest Editor Lydia Wayman is an autistic woman with a complex set of medical conditions. She chose Issue 17’s theme to explore the many ways advocates are changing the health care system.
“Self-advocates are leading the way to make autism-friendly medical care as easy to come by as the common cold. These strategies for everything from sensory overload to self-care will help you feel better the next time you have to visit the doctor.”
