A Voice for the Voiceless: The Wong Family’s Story of Advocacy and Courage

In this #SoBold episode, we spoke with the Wong family’s lawyer who shared invaluable advice on their case. We revisit Nadine and Charles Wong’s powerful story of love, perseverance, and justice for their twin sons with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Their non-speaking autistic boys were abused by their teacher aide for months, but the Wongs refused to back down. They fought for five years to be the voice for their twins and other special needs children who can’t advocate for themselves.

Justice was finally served after four grueling weeks of court hearings, and the Wongs were awarded a staggering $45M in damages.

However, there has been a recent development: the School District has decided to appeal the case. As a result, the story is still unfolding.

We’re honored to share the Wongs’ story with you and hope it inspires you to stand up for what’s right, no matter how tough the fight may be.
