Join us for a deeper dive into understanding ASD and how to support Autistic youth and adults. Learn more about the evaluation process and the barriers to accessing a diagnosis and relevant supports and services, while also exploring the shift in perspective as the neurodivergent community shifts towards an “insider perspective” of the autistic experience.
