Autism is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder impacting many
individuals across demographics and settings. At the core, someone with
autism presents with challenges in the areas of social, behavior, and
communication. However, the diagnosis is more complex and nuanced,
impacted by internal and external factors which may require supports and
services. This training will explore the diagnosis through a visual
depiction of an "autism wheel" and will end with an opportunity to
engage in a "fireside chat" with the presenter to discuss what you need
as a supporter to best support individuals with autism.
