Parent Workshop - Making the Invisible Visible - Visual Supports
Our world is made up of many invisible and arbitrary concepts, such as time, social rules and expectations. Making these visible for our Autistic children helps them to understand and participate in the world more successfully.
This parent workshop is a very practical and hands-on workshop where parents will walk away with visual resources that can be used at home, in the community and at school.
