Drawing on qualitative interviews and focus groups with thirteen parents, the study examines how cultural identity shapes experiences of inclusion, advocacy, and service provision. It highlights the ways in which Jewish cultural needs are often overlooked in mainstream autism programming, and how families navigate these gaps through community engagement and personal adaptation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; color: #494949; letter-spacing: -.25pt;\"\u003eThe book contributes to interdisciplinary debates on culturally responsive care, neurodiversity, and minority representation in educational and behavioral health systems.
