In this episode, Barbara Vokatis, Ph.D. shares her inspiring journey of partnering with the school system to better support neurodivergent children. One of her most innovative contributions is the integration of therapy dogs into schools. This is a journey that began with certifying her own dog.

What if embracing neurodiversity as a strength, rather than a challenge could revolutionize not only how we teach autistic students, but how we grow as educators, communities, and human beings?
