THE PIECES OF RESOURCES: AUTISM
EDUC 6990
The National Autistic Society is a leading
organization found in the United Kingdom that aims toward improving the lives
of autistic children and families providing the essential tools and practices
in order to promote advocacy of autism. Tools such as educational services and
qualified educators, The National Autistic Society is a great international
reference simply for its participation toward designing a safe learning
environment for autistic children and families.
The Autism Science Foundation, located in
the United States, supports the ongoing research and discussion regarding
autism. From this source, The Autism Science Foundation trails better developments
and awareness for the general public, school programs, and individual families
experiencing the effects of autism.
Lastly, the American Academy of Children
and Adolescent Psychiatry is a great organization that focuses on the well-being
and behavior of autism offering treatment, observations, and therapies to
autistic children and families in order to monitor research efforts.
I share these three organizations with you
because the articles from each site provides a helpful understanding to the
challenges of disabilities like autism as well as contributing an outreach to
those needing the information for their individual journeys regarding autism
and education.
Each organization offers job positions
whether for volunteer work or professional lead. From marketer to supervisor,
volunteer to researcher it is very settling to know organizations like The
National Autistic Society, The Autism Science Foundation, and The American
Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry provide opportunity to those who have
or want the experience and skills to play a role toward the challenges and
discoveries of autism.
Below are the links to the organizations
mentioned above. Please take a moment to look as we thrive to help and educate
effectively in the field of Early Childhood.
