My report on the BBC World Service about Jose Canoy who was twelve years old when his family decided that he would no longer do well in school. Jose is autistic, and his family had to accept that, unlike his siblings and other kids his age, Jose would never memorize the planets in the solar system or write an essay on history. But the Canoy family did not want him to stop learning. They opened the Puzzle Café in Manila, Philippines, as a place for him and other young adults with autism, to learn practical skills, and continue to thrive. Today, Puzzle Café is run by Jose’s older siblings.
