Next Steps Workshop for Families

A Workshop for Parents & Caregivers Supporting Young Children,          Newly Diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

This workshop is geared towards families with a young child recently diagnosed with ASD. Topics will include an overview of ASD and accompanying conditions, available therapies and treatments, how to decide what interventions to pursue, and tips for supporting families living with ASD.

Presenters will include experts in developmental and behavioral pediatrics, speech and language pathology, occupational therapy, education, and special education law.

The workshop will also include a discussion and Q&A with a panel of parents who have a child diagnosed with ASD and have made the next steps with their children.
