Hello, My name is Haley Cohen. I'm a reporter at the Economist magazine and the sibling of a wonderful little brother on the spectrum. I'm hoping to do a series of articles on autism and would love to interview parents of autistic children and adults. I'll likely write three pieces on the following topics: 1) How workplaces can and should adapt to accommodate autistic employees. 2) The high costs of caring for autistic individuals. 3) The label of autism itself and whether it's helpful or hurtful.
If you'd be interested in speaking about one or all of these topics, could you please send me your email and phone number to haleycohen@economist.com ?
I should mention: while on-the-record chats would be preferable, I'm very happy to keep sensitive things off-the-record or on background.
I hope to hear from some of you. Very bests, Haley
