For those of you not familiar with ASI – here is a brief description of what they do:
-
The Autism Society of Illinois(ASI) was founded more than 30 years ago for indivuals with autism, parents, families, professional, corporate partners and friends. Our objective is to provide education, training, individual assistance and practical support for parents; increase public awareness of autism; offer a referral network of professionals.

Join Stephen in his autobiographical journey from the nonverbal days as he relates his life to many challenges facing people on the autism spectrum. Some of the areas discussed include classroom accommodations, teaching of musical intruments, as well as issues faced by adults such as relationships, self-advocacy, higher education, and employment. This interactive workshop includes a number of activities for deepening audience understanding of the many challenges individuals with autism have in areas such as sensory issues, communication and socialization. Parents, educators, therapists and supporting people with autism will come away with easy to implement, practical solutions for helping those with autism lead fulfilling and productive lives.
I hope you will be able to come to this informative event!
