Adolescent Issues for Autistic Teenagers with Professor Tony Attwood

SNAP is pleased to welcome back Professor Tony Attwood – who will be joining us live from Australia via Zoom.

The presentation focuses on challenges faced by autistic teenagers, which range from the physical aspects of puberty to changes in friendship, the development of sexuality, the change in academic expectations, emotion management, issues regarding self-esteem, and preparation for college and employment.

This talk is aimed at parents, carers and professionals who have, or are working with, an autistic young person who does not have a learning disability. Professor Attwood may make reference to “ASD Level 1” – in relation to the clinical scale of support outlined in the DSM 5.
