Introduction to Autism Seminar

Chapel Hill TEACCH offers a seminar for parents with a goal to ensure that all parents of children with a diagnosis of ASD have access to information that will help in better understanding autism as well as the behaviors and learning style that accompanies this disability. The focus of the seminar is understanding autism spectrum disorders, understanding the learning, social, communication and behavioral needs of individuals with ASD, and understanding your child’s individuality and how to use this information to problem solve and advocate for them. This seminar is designed for parents of newly diagnosed individuals, but the information shared is useful to all parents, regardless of a child’s age, development, or length of time since diagnosis. The seminar is a combination of lecture, discussion, and time for individual questions. Call 919-966-5156 for more information.

Introduction to Autism is a seminar that meets for two hours, once per week.  We offer both morning and evening options. This seminar is typically scheduled in January, March, May, September, and November. Registration information goes out to clients through our TEACCH-Chapel Hill Listerv about one month prior to the next scheduled event.
