Join POAC Autism Services and NJACE for this full day conference. Although it is widely recognized that anxiety is a concern for children and adults on the autism spectrum, parents and professionals feel largely ill-equipped to effectively handle the issues that arise. Children, youth, and adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) may express anxiety very differently from neurotypical people. Additionally, research has shown that people with autism have a higher risk of adverse and potentially traumatic childhood experiences. This conference will provide hands on activities to address these issues. Specifically, the following will be covered:
In addition to the above, we will be conducting mock assessments using tools discussed in the conference. This is an advanced session and all participants will have to have either participated in part one or have a solid understanding of anxiety in autism including causes and identification in individuals with ASD. 6 BACB Type 2 credits will be available as well as Department of Education CEUs.
Registration Fee:
Current POAC Members $40
