With the rate of Autism Spectrum Disorders on the rise and education playing such a pivotal role in children’s development, it is important for parents to acquire the knowledge and skills to effectively advocate for their children. In honor of Autism Awareness Month we are providing this learning opportunity to better help parents address their children’s educational needs.

Topics Covered will include:
•Common difficulties experienced by students on the Autism Spectrum
•Best Educational Practices in supporting students on the Autism Spectrum
•Learning how to ask for services at a special education meeting
•Learning what services your school district must provide to your child
•Learning what to do when the school district says “no”

The first two hours of the presentation will be informational and the last hour will be a panel discussion where the audience can ask the professionals specific questions.
