They are two Asian-American women that share their stories and bring attention to mental health awareness especially in their community.

Dr. Jessica Bennett is a special education teacher and had been doing this for about 17 years. She licensed for kids grade K-12 and sometimes she teaches colleges classes. As part of her teaching, she helps many that have reading disabilities and other neurodiverse struggles.
She talked about why she decided to focus on children with dyslexia. She discusses how setting up some tools in schools to help not just those with learning differences, but also could support those who do not have the same concerns. She answers how does ADHD and dyslexia connect, what can people do at home to help their children if they have learning differences, and how can they advocate for them at school.
My favorite quote from this video is, “You are the CEO of your child’s IEP”.
