Description
In effort to increase awareness and understanding of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and inclusion of individuals within college campuses, two undergraduate SCLEND trainees planned an Autism Awareness and Inclusion Week for Furman University in SC. The events included a talk by an autism expert in ASD, a family panel, an internship fair, and a fundraising event that addressed the students' misconceptions about ASD.Back to Session: Poster Symposium 1: Postsecondary Education & Disability Studies
