In Jason\u2019s first solo episode, he draws from a presentation he gave at a previous Young Adult Transition Association (YATA) conference. He has found one of the most successful treatments for the neurodiverse young adult population has nothing to do with treatment.

He goes into detail about the developmental model as it applies to neurodiverse young people. This understanding gives important insights into how to better influence children. It also helps you to be ready for which developmental stage that delays really become apparent.

This part 1 episode sets the stage for what a high school re-do is and why it\u2019s often so needed.
