The Amazingly Sensational Kids of Jamiyl and Tracy-Ann Samuels

In this podcast, we are amazed by our sensational guests Jamiyl Samuels and Tracy-Ann Samuels. Jamiyl, a creative writer of novels to screenplays, and Tracy-Ann, a social worker and Rutgers alumnus, are the co-founders of The Amazingly Sensational Kids (T.A.S.K), creating children's books that educate, entertain and empower. 

As parents of an awesome autistic child named Trey Samuels, they have advocated on behalf of this community with respect to access to education and services, anti-bullying, interfamily communications and social dynamics. The T.A.S.K book series, 'The Amazingly Awesome Amani' and 'Sensationally Super Sandy', are inspired by their son Trey's courageous journey as an autistic child navigating the realities of life through his vivid imagination as well as their super daughter Aja Samuels who supports her brother and advocates for autism acceptance and empowerment.
