December 7 - Kalispell
December 8 - Missoula
Both workshops will be from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
This
presentation covers a much needed and little talked about area for youths with
ASD. Youths with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities are twice as
likely as their typically developing peers to be victims of physical or sexual
abuse. Information regarding puberty, hygiene, and sexuality relates to keeping
children with ASD safe. Areas covered can easily become target behaviors,
objectives for IEPs, or treatment goals for youth with ASD.
Topics include:
What to Expect (and what you might not expect.)
Hygiene
Clothing Matters
Personal Safety
Rethinking "The Talk"
Teaching Anatomy
and more!
