The virtual roundtable will be moderated by Good Friend, Inc. (GFI) co-founders Chelsea Budde and Denise Schamens, both mothers to neurodivergent young adults. GFI board director and autistic and disability advocate Sarah Russell also contributes an invaluable perspective to the discussion.

Topics include:

  • The concept of neurodiversity.
  • Why hiring autistic workers is a sound business practice.
  • How Good Friend, Inc., helps companies be inclusive of adults on the autism spectrum using best practices in recruiting, hiring, and retention.
