Encouraging Early Language Skills for Children with Autism (2 – 5 years)

Though all children are helped when they receive early attention to their language skills, it is of paramount importance for the child with autism. This workshop will include:

  • Overview of communication impairments;
  • Teaching prelinguistic communication behaviors (e.g., point response, eye contact);
  • Teaching beginning level nonverbal communication (e.g., object communication, picture communication); and
  • Teaching beginning level verbal communication.
