LGBTQ - Dual Spectrum #3553

ASD is not a new diagnosis, but the understanding of this neurological difference and its implications on all aspects of life is evolving. Issues relating to sexuality and gender identification are no different. In this training, they will explore the complicated relationship between autism spectrum disorder and human sexuality. Participants will gain better understanding of current related research findings, strategies for productively discussing these issues with individuals with ASD, and local resources for ongoing support. The target audience for this webinar is caregivers of persons with ASD for whom these topics seem most relevant. However, professionals working with individuals on the spectrum and adults with ASD are welcome to participate.
