The overlap between ADHD and Autism is more common than people might imagine. Since many of the symptoms are similar, accurate diagnosis can be challenging, as is advocating for appropriate accommodations for support. In this conversation, Dr. Temple Grandin (arguably one of the most well-known persons with Autism in the world), speaks with ADHD expert Diane Dempster about executive function support, emotional support, and the importance of work and jobs for children with ADHD and Autism. 

Tune in as Grandin shares new research on three different styles of thinkers (visual, verbal, and mathematical), and joins Diane Dempster in presenting a number of options for parents to consider in supporting kids with ADHD and Autism.
