Quotes
From the employers' viewpoint, providing job opportunities for individuals with autism is a win-win situation.
"The benefits that we have with David ... it actually keeps us humble, grounded, and grateful," said Lisa Giannini-White, the Director of Operations of Southpoint Animal Hospital in Durham, where David Roth works in the afternoons. "We thoroughly enjoy having David here."
...
Lisa said it was a part of Southpoint Animal Hospital's original business plan to "offer opportunities to everybody." Before David came to work for them, she did research about how to support individuals with autism and also consulted with his father about David in particular. When she talked to her employees about bringing David on, they were all for it, she said, and so she shared what she had learned.
