November 2, 2022

The Delaware Network for Excellence in Autism (DNEA), housed at UD’s Center for Disabilities Studies, offers training and technical assistance that benefits individuals with autism, their families, and the professionals who serve them. We are pleased to announce our statewide virtual training schedule designed to introduce participants to the core characteristics of autism and practices that provide support in a variety of settings.

While the holidays are a time of joy and celebration, they can also be difficult for youth with autism spectrum disorder and other developmental or intellectual disabilities. This workshop, presented to you by the DNEA, will review why the holidays can be particularly challenging for children with disabilities and their families or caregivers while presenting strategies that can assist in reducing holiday-related stress and challenging behaviors.

This training is in collaboration with Trauma Matters Delaware.

Please check the email you used to register and/or your JUNK mail if you do not find the confirmation in your inbox. Participants will be emailed a certificate of attendance approximately two weeks post-training.
