PLANNING YOUR HOLIDAYS DURING THE PANDEMIC

THIS WEBINAR HAS BEEN CANCELLED

The holiday season is fast approaching, which means it’s time to firm up your plans. Unfortunately, those plans are going to look a lot different this year during the pandemic.  Whether it’s how to plan for gatherings, what to do if you can’t see family or even if you and your family disagree about the best course of action, there could be tough choices ahead.  Even after you have made the plans, you still need to explain these changes to your loved one living with autism.  

Join ASGA as we talk with Dr. Carrie Cuffman, Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrician at Cleveland Clinic Children’s about:

• How do I prepare my child with autism for holiday celebrations that may look different this year?
• What can I do to help make the holidays special for my child this year amid the pandemic restrictions?
• How can I make holiday gatherings as safe as possible for my child and family during the pandemic?
• How do I deal with expectations from other family members whose thoughts on the pandemic don’t align with my own?
