Supporting Families in Understanding Autism Spectrum Disorder is an introductory and practical workshop designed to help caregivers better understand how autistic children experience and process the world. Grounded in a neurodevelopmental and strengths-based perspective, this workshop supports caregivers in reframing behaviour as communication, recognizing that skills develop at different rates across areas of functioning, and understanding the critical role of regulation in a child’s ability to meet expectations.

Caregivers will learn how to interpret behaviour through a compassionate and developmentally informed lens, emphasizing that regulation comes before expectations. This workshop introduces core concepts such as co-regulation as the foundation for self-regulation, and highlights how prioritizing connection over compliance leads to more meaningful and lasting outcomes.

This three-week program is facilitated by a Registered Social Worker and takes place virtually over Teams.
