It takes a community to raise a child.  To raise a child with ASD takes a community who are knowledgeable, committed and prepared to work together.  No one person can do it alone.

'tips for autism'  is a course where a team of people dedicates three days to learning about and developing interventions and plans to support their child with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

The course is free for participants and available nationwide for teams supporting school-aged children with ASD.
