What if your child’s reading struggles weren’t a life sentence—but a solvable challenge? In this episode of The Autism Podcast, I sit down with Sandra Bermudez, a literacy specialist, national advocate, and founder of The Lucy Project—a Miami-based nonprofit that’s rewriting the story for children with dyslexia, autism, and other learning differences. 💡 A Wake-Up Call for Every Parent Sandra’s journey didn’t begin in a classroom. It started at home with her daughter, Lucy. Lucy once carried the label of dyslexia. But when Lucy no longer qualified for that diagnosis, it wasn’t just a victory—it was a wake-up call. A realization that the system often gets it wrong. That when schools say “your child can’t,” they may be revealing more about their limitations than your child’s. Since that moment, Sandra has helped hundreds of struggling readers, trained teachers across the country, and built a science-based reading program in Miami that’s making measurable change. 📘 What You’ll Learn in This Conversation This isn’t just a conversation about reading. It’s about advocacy, equity, and giving parents real tools to fight back against broken systems. 🏠 Why This Matters to Miami Families As a Miami realtor for families with special needs, I work with parents every day who are trying to build lives that actually work—for their kids, their routines, and their future.
