Episode 31: This Music Will Continue to Play: A Conversation with Autism Center Program Director Amy Bixler Coffin
Megan and Simon are joined by Amy Bixler Coffin, program director of the Autism Center at OCALI and program manager of the Multi-System Navigation Center at OCALI. It’s a big and bittersweet moment as Amy retires after a 20-year career at OCALI and 35-year career in education. We share a lot of laughs, a few tears, but mostly we commemorate and celebrate all that her two centers have accomplished over the years while we look forward to the next chapter of their work, services, and offerings.
