When: Wednesday June 15, 2022 08:30 AM Pacific Time (US and Canada)
About: Being a parent of a child, adolescent, or adult with autism carries with it unique responsibilities and stressors. These stressors are significantly increased by the war. This requires extra doses of emotional resilience, perseverance, and resourcefulness. Parents frequently find that there is little time and energy for their own self-care. This presentation will emphasize the importance and the gift of parent self-care, not only for themselves but also for the well-being of their children and family. The focus of this presentation will be to provide various ways parents can care for themselves, physically, mentally, and emotionally.
