Autism: Honest Discussion, Practical Strategies and Some Funny Stories

Friday April 25, 2025 10:45am - 12:00pm MDT

Having been an educator, inclusive coach and administrator, parent and having attained a MSE (focus on Autism), I have a unique and broad perspective on autism. As we begin to see rates of children/students with autism rise (diagnosed and undiagnosed, varied levels of functioning), we can look to advance our own understanding, knowledge base and perspective on this growing reality for families and classrooms. This presentation helps facilitate an honest look at the joys and challenges, some practical ideas as well as a look at the positive and often humorous side to autism.
