Thomas D’Eri is Shannon’s special guest today.  Thomas and his father, John D’Eri, co-founded the Rising Tide Car Wash, an innovative social enterprise to develop a scalable solution for employing individuals with autism. They opened the first car in Parkland, Florida in 2013. They were inspired to do this by watching John’s son and Thomas’ brother Andrew, a vibrant young man with autism, struggle to find his place in the world. Thomas shares with Shannon how the Rising Tide Car Wash has created an innovative model that intentionally designs the work environment in a way that empowers individuals with autism to thrive and produce extraordinary results.  Today’s jargon term is :  Visual Supports.
