Communication Supports for Regulation and Behavior Virtual - 34191

Children with autism and complex communication needs may use behavior as a form of expressive communication and/or may become dysregulated when they don’t understand. Visual supports and establishing communication skills that are functionally equivalent to existing behaviors can help. In this session, AAC strategies will be introduced that can improve receptive and expressive communication, support transitions, increase independence, and decrease behaviors. This session is aligned with the Intervention and Behavior components of the TEA-Required Self-Assessment. 0.15 ASHA CEUs offered.
