Foster Care Training

There are many internal and external expectations of showing up correctly around the family. For autistic system-involved youth, there is an added pressure of managing their confusing feelings and issues around belonging, schooling and celebrating life. This session will teach participants how to engage in daily routines, seasonal activities, creating and sharing special interests and hobbies, and learn and teach culturally significant activities, including holidays in a way that brings all the members of the family unit closer together. These structures allow an understanding for our autistic youth to know how they fit into the family system and the opportunities for sharing our lives.
