This workshop is designed to provide caregivers with a supportive introduction to autism and how it may influence their child’s everyday experiences. Caregivers will learn about common characteristics of autism, including differences in communication, social interaction, and behaviour, while emphasizing a strengths-based perspective that recognizes each child’s unique abilities, interests, and ways of engaging with the world. Caregivers will also be introduced to the idea that behaviour communicates important information about a child’s needs. By the end of the webinar, caregivers will have a clearer understanding of common characteristics of autism and will feel more confident observing their child’s behaviour, recognizing that behaviour can communicate needs, and beginning to notice patterns that may help them better support their child.
