Abstract: Purpose: This qualitative pilot study explored cultural perspectives and needs of two bilingual (Spanish/English) Latina mothers with children on the autism spectrum in conversations with their children's speech-language pathologists (SLPs), one identifying as Mexican American and the other identifying as White American. Method: Dyadic interviews were used to promote dialogue and learning opportunities for the participants. Two dyads (mothers and SLPs) participated, completing background questionnaires, dyadic interviews, and post-interview written reflections. Results: Three main themes emerged from the qualitative analysis of the dyadic interviews: comunicación (communication), language, and challenge. Post-interview written reflections evidenced increased advocacy skills for the mothers and heightened awareness regarding communication style for the SLPs. Conclusion: The lived experiences revealed by all participants offer several implications: (1) the value of extended conversations between caregivers and service providers, (2) caregiver sacrifices, (3) the importance of cultural sensitivity for SLPs, and (4) positive outcomes from online learning for children on the autism spectrum.
