Ben Brock, who teaches at the Footprints Preschool and Family Resource Center in Camarillo, California, decided to pursue a child development degree after he received an Asperger diagnosis. His parents founded the preschool, and his father also is autistic. The preschool originally was a day care center; the family then decided to develop an inclusive program designed to serve both autistic and non-autistic children.
Four of the five members of the Brock family are involved in running the school. As reported by the Ventura County Star, the Brock family has become passionate about inclusion because of their experiences with being misunderstood by others.
