What: Neuropsychological Issues Affecting Children with Autism in Daily Life
When: 6:00-7:30pm
Where: All sessions are offered through Zoom.
Registration is required: https://nysrcasd.org/events/1528/registrations/new
This seminar will explore how neuropsychological factors influence the daily functioning of children with autism at home, in school, and in the community. We will discuss common challenges in executive functioning, attention, memory, communication, and social-emotional skills, and provide practical, evidence-based strategies that families can use to support their child’s success across settings.
Following participation in the seminar, participants will be able to:
1. Identify common neuropsychological domains affected in autism and how they influence daily functioning
2. Recognize signs of executive functioning, attention, memory, and communication difficulties in home, school, and community settings
3. Apply practical strategies to support skill development and independence in children with autism
Presented by Paula Zuffante, Ph.D., ABPP-CN, is a board-certified clinical neuropsychologist with a subspecialty in pediatric neuropsychology.
