  • サマリー

  • Pull up a virtual backstage chair—this episode is just Heather & Steve, nearly one year in the making. No guests, no scripts, just two advocates who refuse to let the conversation end at “cut.” We revisit our most powerful moments, unpack the “quiet parts” that echo long after the camera stops rolling, and give you the inside scoop on what’s coming next. A heartfelt thank you to everyone for rallying around CDPAP topics lately. We know this platform has been CDPAP-heavy—and we appreciate your understanding. Remember, every issue matters here: home care, federal funding, community innovations, and more.In this free-wheeling episode, you’ll:
    • Relive Standout Moments: Revisit some of the debates that have shaped Finding Common Ground and hear why they still matter: “On his 21st birthday, every single program stops. There is no fallback, no transition to adulthood for these same kinds of programs that he still needs. It took quite an undertaking trying to get him somewhere. At the very last minute we got the miracle, and he moved in yesterday.”
    • Explore the Camera Conundrum: Why aren’t group homes outfitted with the same camera technology we see in every other sector? “If you’re in a hospital, there are cameras. If you’re in a school, on a bus, if you’re in a store, if you’re in a nursing home, we even use cameras to keep our cars safe. Why not our most vulnerable?” We dismantle the tired privacy arguments and sketch out how we could make it work for everyone’s safety.
    • Meet Our Newest Allies: Learn how a horrifying abuse case at the Anderson Autism Center forged Heather’s bond with Shalini (the boy’s mother) and led to a collaboration with his Dad, Anil. Their pioneering AI platform will not only document and expose abuse, it aims to prevent it before it happens. Stay tuned for a deep-dive episode on how you can help train this technology, so it’s designed with your family’s needs in mind.
    • Follow Steve’s Foster-to-Family Mission: After welcoming nearly 200 children into their home, Steve and his wife are finalizing their last adoptions—and you’ll be astonished by the stories they’ll share once their family is complete. Buckle up for an upcoming mini-series of eye-opening revelations and groundbreaking solutions they couldn't discuss until now.
    Why Listen to this Episode?
    • Respectful Dialogue: We tackle the issues blowing up other platforms. Just last month, nearly 80,000 people engaged with our RFK Jr. autism post with only three comments that "crossed the line" with a disrespectful tone. Which shows us what’s possible when we welcome raw truths and diverse perspectives.
    • Common Ground = Real Change: Every voice matters. By sharing honest stories from every side, we pave the way to solutions that last long after we are gone.
    • Your Voice Matters: Tune in, then dive into the discussion. Tell us which topics you want us to explore next—home care, housing, policy, or something entirely new.
    Listen now on your favorite podcast app or watch on YouTube. The backstage door is open—come join the conversation that keeps going long after the cameras are off.
