Autism Friendly Training for All
AutPlay Therapy with STARS for Autism now offers Autism Friendly Training for anyone, no matter where you are! What is an Autism-Friendly Training?
The award winning Autism-Friendly training were created by the nonprofit group Stars for Autism. The basic Autism-Friendly training is a full-day training which allows attendees to understand what autism is and how to interact with those on the autism spectrum. This training promotes awareness of the social, sensory, and environmental barriers which affect individuals who have autism. Educators, therapists, government employees, and professionals across a variety of settings, gain valuable information for working with, serving, and interacting with individuals with autism. This training provides a valuable resource for anyone in any setting to better understand and interact with those with autism spectrum disorder. Who Should Complete an Autism-Friendly Training? Cities like Battlefield and Bolivar, MO have completed the Blueprint for an Autism-Friendly City Training and many organizations and professionals such as police offices, first responders, church staff, educators, and bus drivers have completed Autism-Friendly training. If you are an individual, group, business, or organization who works with, serves, or has contact with individuals with autism, this training is designed for you!
