This episode follows the deeply personal conversation with Christine by widening the lens from one family's experience to a global examination of autism, education, culture, and inclusion. Drawing on perspectives and professional experiences connected to the United States, United Kingdom, and St. Lucia/Caribbean, we explore what autism holds in common across borders, how culture and educational systems shape people's experiences differently, and what each region can learn from the others. Our central question asks, "If autism crosses borders, why can the experience of living with autism change so dramatically depending on where a person lives - and what can we learn from one another to do better?"
