At the end of January already, here are a few links to good reads and information around what is out there at the minute around Autism.
Growing Up with Autism Undiagnosed | Different Minds This is a lady’s own story of how she grew up with Autism but did not get diagnosed until she was 21! It’s definitely a good read if you can spare 10minutes. Below from the same website is a ladies take on a poem that she has written herself, who also is diagnosed with Autism. My Magic | Different Minds . The website is a new find to me but does seem to have some good read on about experiences.
In January an event took place in parliament which led to findings that less than 14% in mainstream secondary schools, had no more than half a day’s training on dealing with Autism and students who attend their school. Below is the link to the full outcome off our event and how it happened.
