    Patrick Ober

    “The support system around someone is the reason why someone can determine those Self Determination skills and embrace Self Determination. I make the direct connection to my brother, Steve, who has autism.” Today we talk with Patrick Ober, Director of Programs and Operations at Stepping Stones, a Cincinnati non-profit organization that provides programming and supports to people with disabilities.  Patrick walks us through his own Self Determination journey, comparing it to Steve’s Self Determination, as deliberately fostered by his family. He talks candidly about the struggles and stretches that his family and others experience and gives such beautiful insight into the many benefits of that commitment.
