Has your child recently received a new diagnosis of Autism? This 2-hour workshop is designed as a “first step” for parents and caregivers who are eager to learn about what current services are available, and begin exploring options to best support their families’ unique needs.

Adapted from the Nonviolent Crisis Intervention® (NVCI) training program offered through the Crisis Prevention Institute (CPI), this session will help participants recognize and respond early to signs of anxiety and/or distress, implement supportive verbal and non-verbal communication techniques and appropriate de-escalation strategies, and manage their emotional responses during challenging situations.
