About this Event
Every Parent and professional enters the Autism journey filled with fear. Most are funnelled into "Autism Awareness" training that only seeks to highlight outdated and negative stereotypes. Training that only teaches what the impact of autism is on professionals from an outside view. It is time for something completely different...
This motivational workshop will benefit parents of autistic children, no matter what stage of the journey they are on. Not only is this course for parents, but children and young people are also encouraged to look on as Jude Morrow provides his incredible story of being an autistic child in a mainstream school lacking confidence, to growing up to be a social worker and ambassador for autistic people all over the world.
This Course Covers
- Incorrect Use of Language and Symbols
- Telling children/siblings about autism
- Why Neurodiversity is the future.
- What autistic people ACTUALLY struggle with - not what professionals THINK are the largest struggles of the autistic community.
- Live Q&A With Jude Morrow
"This is the training my parents wish they had when I was small. Any training and workshops they did frightened them. They made them worry about my future. All autistic kids and parents need to know that we can grow up to live happy and successful lives. It all starts at home, you need the tools and mindset to see autism as a gift to be cherished - not a burden to be pitied" - Jude Morrow
