Social Integration Strategies for People with Autism Spectrum Disorder
Hours: 0.75
Social interactions are a big part of life. Relationships add meaning to life. They are key to a happy, healthy life for most people. Interacting with others is important to build relationships and be part of a community.
In this course, you will learn about some common social challenges faced by people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). People with ASD face challenges with social communication and interactions. ASD also causes repetitive patterns of thinking and behaving. These two features of ASD often make it difficult for people with ASD to make social connections. This course will also explain how you can support people with ASD to engage with others around them.
The goal of this course is to teach DSPs in IDD service settings how to support people with autism spectrum disorder to make social connections.
