Effective Strategies for Managing Challenging Behaviours in Autism and Social Communication Differences
Join us for an engaging and informative workshop designed to empower parents, caregivers, educators, and professionals with effective strategies for managing challenging behaviors associated with autism and social communication disorder (SCD). Participants will gain insight into the core challenges faced by individuals with autism and SCD, including difficulties with social interaction, understanding social cues, and maintaining conversations. The workshop will also cover diagnostic criteria and assessment tools for both disorders, helping attendees to navigate the complexities of development and behaviour.
Through hands-on activities, service providers will leave with a toolbox of behavioral and cognitive-behavioral interventions aimed at reducing challenging behaviors, teaching new skills, and promoting self-regulation. Specific social communication strategies will be highlighted, including techniques for facilitating back-and-forth conversations with individuals on the spectrum or with a social communication disorder.
Additionally, we will discuss how to modify the environments—home, classroom, and community—to improve behaviors and support independent living skills as participants transition to adulthood.
Join us for this lively, educational, and experiential workshop that will transform your approach to supporting individuals with autism and social communication disorder.
