Driven to Succeed

Obtaining a drivers license is an exciting time in a person’s life that can contribute to greater independence. Persons who are on the Autism Spectrum or other delays oftentimes face different and increased challenges when they are trying to obtain their drivers license.

This month George and Tesha are pleased to introduce you to Andrew Arboe, founder of Driving With Autism, a company that prepares individuals on the Autism Spectrum to get their driver’s license. Andrew used his personal experiences as an adult with Autism to develop driver readiness content. This content reviews the expectations that come along with obtaining a driver’s license as well as how to overcome the challenges adults with Autism face when trying to do so. A few of the beneficial topics Andrew covers in his webinars are sensory needs, police interactions, and parent perspectives. 

So buckle up and listen to how Andrew is helping individuals on the Autism Spectrum obtain their driver’s license and gain their independence.
