ACRES is an organization whose mission is to increase independence and quality of life for adults with autism. Piece's first guest, Mary Krupa, discusses her experiences as a woman with autism, along with some of the programs ACRES has formed to provide social and supportive outlets specifically for women on the autism spectrum. Content warning: between 9:30 to 13:05, sexual assault is discussed in very general terms in regards to how autism can effect a person’s perception of sexual advances. The conversation is kept non-specific and is only talking about it as a larger issue, but if you’d prefer to skip over it, 13:05 is the last time it comes up.
