Allies and Obstacles Workshop

Re•Storying Autism was honoured to be part of The Miles Nadal Jewish Community Centre evening focused on parent advocacy, past and present. Authors of the book "Allies and Obstacles" discussed their research and highlighted the ways in which parents have been both "allies and obstacles" to the Disability Rights Movement. Below are films that were screened as part of the event, as well as a film created by “Allies and Obstacles” author Pamela Block.
