Autism intervention continues to evolve.

We’re seeing a paradigm shift to one that embraces difference, takes the client’s lead, builds on strengths while supporting needs, and appreciates how the body and brain use behaviors to manage surroundings.

But keeping up with emerging evidence-based autism assessments and treatments can be time consuming and overwhelming, leaving you unsure of what steps to take next…

…that’s why we’re introducing the Certified Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist Intensive Training (ASDCS) – 2nd Edition: Affirming Neurodiversity with Strengths- and Abilities-Based Interventions. Leading voices in the field will breakdown interventions and approaches that’ll help bring out your autistic clients’ unique skills and extraordinary potential to help them thrive!
