My Debt to Heather Conroy<\/h3>\n

I met Heather Conroy shortly after Susan and I began our move to Western Pennsylvania. Moving to a new state, with only one friend nearby, was a major undertaking for me. A lot of things went wrong. I needed to determine what resources were available in the region and who might help explain accommodations to an employer.<\/p>\n

Heather is supportive, but not a \u201ccheerleader.\u201d She gives honest advice, helping autistics develop strategies to achieve goals.<\/p>\n\n\n
