Welcome to Hot Topics! Gabrielle Crichlow talks to Dr. Rochelle Matthews-Somerville about the rules, regulations, and the know-how of homeschooling a child with special needs.

Who is Dr. Rochelle Matthews-Somerville?
Rochelle Matthews-Somerville, Ph.D., co-founded EFM Educational Consultants in 2010 after teaching as a university professor for many years. She has dedicated more than 25 years to supporting individuals with ASD and other learning and developmental disabilities to lead healthy, productive lives. During her years of serving the community as a University Professor, Special Educator, Autism Specialist, and Educational Consultant in the Southern Maryland area, she and her husband were blessed to be surrounded by a vibrant homeschooling community. As a natural extension of their passion for learning, they decided to homeschool their 6 children -- and 15 years later, they are still going strong! Through her role as a homeschool mom and EFM, Dr. Somerville is dedicated to assisting families, especially those with homeschooling children with disabilities, to access high-quality, inclusive community-based activities, programs, and resources that prepare their children for the future.
