Dr. McCullough: My path to clinical psychology began with my brother, who is on the autism spectrum. Growing up Deaf in a world with limited access, my Deaf parents missed the support that could have helped him feel more understood and less angry. This is why we need Deaf access.

Acknowledging a past mistake and opposing it shows not hypocrisy, but a capacity for growth and positive change.
