What's Your Squawkers McCaw? Workplace Accomodations video

I found this very valuable 15-minute video from an autistic woman employed at University of Kentucky....


I am so happy for Bev Harp that she and her parrot friend Squawkers McCaw are so well accepted in her workplace, and I wish that all employers would watch this video and really, really pay attention to it. I wouldn't mind working at UofK after college if they've become as accommodating as she says.

Just for the record, I'm from KY as well, and I know firsthand that their accommodations for disabilities in workplaces and schools leave a lot to be desired, jus' sayin'...so I love finding videos like these. :)

What she said is profound. Thank you for posting it :)
