Summary

In Watching Sarah Rise, Jenny Briggs shares her experience parenting her daughter Sarah, a feisty girl who has a unique genetic blueprint and is on the autism spectrum. At age four Sarah was non-verbal, her eye contact was decreasing, she was in diapers, and eating was a struggle. Determined to help her daughter thrive, Jenny trained at the Autism Treatment Center of America to run a Son-Rise Program, an approach based on connection, love, and play that is aimed at fostering social connection and language. Calling her program Sarah-Rise, Jenny enlisted the help of a small fleet of volunteers to spend hours of one-on-one time with Sarah. Accompany Jenny as Sarah's language explodes, her eye contact improves, and she learns to play games, play imaginatively, use the potty, eat healthily, read, and write a momentous journey that will warm your heart and knock your socks off.
