Guest Intro:  Dawn M. Barclay is an award-winning author with over 30 years of experience in her career of learning and sharing the different aspects of travel. After graduating from Tufts University with degrees in psychology and marketing, she began working as an agent at her parents' firms, Barclay Travel Ltd and Barclay International Group Short-Term Apartment Rentals. From there she moved on to the business of travel trade reporting. She held the titles of senior or contributing author for Travel Agent Magazine, Travel Life, Travel market report, and most recently Insider Travel Report. Dawn is a mother of two residing in Hudson Valley, NY. She writes fiction under the alias of D.M. Barr while maintaining leadership roles in several writer organizations. Her new book Traveling Different is available now to preorder in hardcover form or as an audiobook. Interview: As far as travel is concerned, what is the biggest concern among families? Families with special needs are often nervous about the sensory issues they will encounter, the meltdowns that may occur as a result, and how those around them might perceive the situation. In a study by the IBCCES (International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards), out of 1,000 parents with special needs children interviewed 87 percent of them choose not to travel. From that group 93 percent would travel if they knew where to go or what to do.  What inspired Dawn to write her book Traveling Different? In the early 2000s Dawn looked for a book that could help guide her, but was unsuccessful. In 2008 she started interviewing for the book she has now written. She spoke with autism and ADHD professionals until she hit a wall. When she discovered the IBCCES group a program they created helped navigate her way to writing her book. Due to the covid pandemic she utilized her time to conduct research and a series of interviews for which the book is based on.  Recap: 1- Preparation: Children with sensory issues need a sense of predictability. Give your child a start to finish preview from the trip. This can be done in a few different ways.  Think through from beginning to end Preview it for predictability Social stories, videos, experiences (house or friend) 2- Make the trip “child-centric'': Plan a trip around their needs and interests.  Plan the trip around their needs Pace activities during the trip Cater to their special interests 3- You have resources: There are several hotels, airlines, and travel sites that have labeled themselves as autistic friendly or certified autism centers that have devoted their time in training individuals to handle those who have special needs.  Her book lists phone numbers and URL's for many places Museums, parks may have special travel related events and activities that's Autism friendly.
