Community, Connection, and Advocacy: Championing Inclusion for Black caregivers
Today, we have a chat between Brad Saunders, CEO of Community Living Toronto, and Sherron Grant, parent, advocate and co-founder of Sawubona. In this episode, Sherron shares how her family navigated their son’s autism diagnosis and found strength in the community. Brad and Sherron also talk about common issues seen by families in racialized communities – and the importance of connection in the caregiving journey as well as how belonging and shared experiences are at the heart of everything Sawubona does and its vision.
