His name is Stephen Shore and he is a professor of special education at Adelphi University. Hopefully, this will be encourage autistic representation in Autism Speaks. He seeks to provide more community services
Proof that he is autistic from his homepage:
http://www.autismasperger.net/bio.htmI was the only board member of my local autism center that has autism. Currently, I am the only board member with autism for another autism organization. These boards have to start somewhere, if it wants to get more people who have autism or are autistic.
