Life on and Slightly to the Right of the Autism spectrum

Stephen Shore is one of the few people to view Autism/ Asperger Syndrome as a gift. Stephen does not see himself as special or a miracle but purely as somebody who was blessed and is now able to share his story with those of us that are affected by Autism/ Asperger Syndrome, whether that be directly, through a family member or in the classroom.

Topics covered in this course are:

• Behavior and WHY?
• Reaching your nonverbal Child
• The transition from Special School to Mainstream School and what accommodations need to be made.
• The importance of the parent’s role in helping their children.
• Working through the teenage years towards Adult challenges of higher education, working, relationships, disclosure and independent living.

Come join Stephen as he touches upon all of these and other important topics that are involved in helping people on the autism spectrum lead as fulfilling and productive lives to the fullest extent possible.
