Discover what’s possible when caring is enough to make a difference.

Today’s episode is part two of Team Saudi Arabia’s SkillCorps® journey. If you haven’t yet listened to part one, I encourage you to go back to episode 100 so that you can hear about the first half of the team’s trip.

If you have any personal or professional connection with autism — that is, if you’re a self-advocate, teacher, therapist, or another type of service provider — these two special episodes are meant for you.

The Namaee therapists sharing insights about their culture
The impact of our work on future generations of autistic people
The Namaee staff’s takeaways from our collaboration
Our team’s personal and professional growth
Advice for future SkillCorps® travelers
