Arrest My Sister: an adult-with-autism success story
by Paula
Autism Awareness Month sure kept us busy at Easter Seals Southern California! We have many services available for adults with autism and other disabilities, and those services were featured in several newspaper articles and radio and television interviews. Several stories featured our day services, residential support, community and recreational activities, financial planning, assistance with job training and finding a job.
Some of the articles and interviews featured adults with autism who were successfully employed, including one young man with autism who is a lead singer in a band. Scott Siegel, front man for the band Arrest My Sister, joined me for several radio interviews where he discussed what it is like to have autism, his relationship with Easter Seals and his success as a musician. You can link to our appearance on the SoCal Experience on ESPN Radio to hear for yourself what a terrific spokesman Scott is. Once you’re done there, listen to Arrest my Sister on YouTube to hear what a terrific musician he is, too!
All in all it was a great month and a nice way to get the information about Easter Seals Southern California’s services and supports out to the public.
