Description

Embracing Neurodiversity for Successful Transition to Adulthood

As the neurodiversity paradigm continues to gain momentum and autistic self-advocates provide a voice for their community, educational and training practices need to change. This presentation will explore individual nervous systems and learning styles and how these inform the way we prepare autistic individuals' for transition to  adulthood using a strengths-based approach.
