In a continuation of the “Trauma in Autistic Children and Young Adults” session, this presentation will delve into trauma in autistic adults. Participants will shift their framework from seeing challenging behaviors as a problem with the individual to seeing it as evidence that challenging things have happened to the individual. You’ll learn to recognize signs of trauma in neurodivergent people, plus options for treating it at all ages. We will encourage a trauma informed care approach for parents, teachers, providers, and everyone else too.
