Description
Eric Garcia's We're Not Broken offers a unique perspective on autism, written from the experiences of an autistic individual. The book challenges common misconceptions and shares the author's own life as a springboard to discuss the social and policy gaps that exist in supporting those on the spectrum. Garcia explores the ways in which autistic people struggle with systems that were not built with them in mind, from education to healthcare. He shares the experiences of a diverse range of autistic individuals, including those with higher support needs, autistic people of color, and those in the LGBTQ community. By giving his community a platform to articulate their own needs, Garcia provides a valuable insight into the lives of autistic people and the importance of acceptance and understanding.
