Traveling with Lemonade explores how people with autism are the same and sometimes different from others due to the neurology of their autism. Judy will share stories of her sojourns in life with family, friends and colleagues. Traveling with Lemonade will give you a renewed hope for the possibilities that can be in all of our futures as we continue to learn how to live with autism in a meaningful, relevant and respectful manner.

She is a statewide DPI Autism Trainer for Wisconsin, ASW board member and author. Judy is a mother of three, one with ASD. The blessings and challenges of her own autism impact all she does.
 
Traveling with Lemonade explores how people with autism are the same and sometimes different from others due to the neurology of their autism.  Judy will share real life stories from the past year, including her trip to New York City, which will highlight how it is not only possible, but can be fun and rewarding for “world-people” to take trips with, interact with and otherwise befriend a person on the spectrum.  You will hear about Judy’s sojourns with friends, family and colleagues and how together they discovered meaningful ways to turn the lemons of autism into lemonade within the context of their relationships. Traveling with Lemonade will take you to new places and give you a renewed hope for the possibilities that can be in all of our futures as we continue to learn how to live with autism in a meaningful, relevant and respectful manner.
