Implicit Bias in the World of Autism
Dr. Mary Jones joins Dr. Stephanie Holmes to discuss her topic as a speaker for Springbrook’s Converge Autism Conference. The topic was on Implicit Bias and How it Contributes to Delayed Diagnoses of Autism in Black and Other Minority Youths. Today Dr. Stephanie discusses some of the key points of Dr. Mary’s workshop. Dr. Mary shares how the clinician’s bias may keep children of color from proper diagnosis and access to resources. Dr. Mary is passionate about this topic from both a professional and lived experience.
