Based on perspectives gleaned through the educational and life experiences of Alex, a young man with moderately severe autism, this workshop shares the vision, strategies, and techniques that make true belonging and inclusion possible for children and adults with autism and other significant disabilities. Participants will gain insights into the HOW of inclusion, learning useful, practical, "take-home and use tomorrow" strategies and methods that allow persons with diverse abilities to function successfully in inclusive general education classrooms from first grade through high school and in adult community life.
As part of this workshop Alex presents, in his own unique way,
his life as an adult in the community.
Join us as we share the story of a journey, of a mountain climbed,
of a victory won, of an unlikely hero,
the story of a young man, his life, his friends and his gift.
Learn as he teaches us how to enable people with disabilities
