This podcast was started for parents and caregivers raising autistic children, but has evolved, and we have listeners across the world who are relatives of someone with autism, special education teachers, and other professionals. My son Jordan was diagnosed with autism when he was 5 years old, now 29. I have been where you are. Jordan will likely never live independently. I am in the trenches every day, just like you. Each week, for 20 minutes or less (most episodes), I discuss topics that directly impact your life on this unique parenting journey. info@notyouraverageautismmom.com

233. Back-to-School Parent Pep Talk; What Every Autism Parent Needs to Know

We’re back—and this time, we’re on video too! In this first brand-new episode since our Best Of Summer Series, Shannon shares her best advice for heading into a new school year when your child has an IEP.

From prompting to paperwork to parent rights, this episode breaks down the 5 Big Back-to-School IEP Buckets every autism parent should understand. Plus, you’ll hear common misconceptions that trip parents up and get a pep talk to remind you—you’ve got this.

Whether it’s your first year navigating special education or you’re a seasoned advocate, this episode will help you feel informed, empowered, and ready to lead your child’s IEP team with confidence.

📺 Now available on video too! Watch on Spotify or listen as always—whichever way you tune in, we’re just glad you’re here.

Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey with us! Together, we are stronger.
