  • Summary

  • Black children are often diagnosed with autism later than their white peers, with some reaching adulthood without a formal assessment. This delay can leave Black parents wondering if they should pursue ASD testing for their adult children. In this episode, “To Formally Test or Not? Understanding Autism Spectrum Disorder Testing for Adults,” I’m joined by Dr. Toi Curry, a clinical neuropsychologist specializing in ASD testing for adults. Together, we discuss the complexities of ASD diagnosis and explore the options for parents considering testing. Don’t miss Dr. Curry’s memorable analogy between an ASD diagnosis and a burrito! You'll want to check out our "Driving us up the Wall" segment, where a parent shares a funny, relatable autism moment—reminding us that we’re not alone in the unique chaos of our journeys. It's proof that the madness doesn't just exist only in your household or in your world! And what's more is, as parents, we ALL just get it-no explanation's necessary!
