Webinar Description:

We will provide a discussion of caregiver coaching strategies over telehealth using two different Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Interventions (NDBIs) and consider options for multiple formats (synchronous and asynchronous). Benefits and challenges to using telehealth technology for caregiver coaching will be explored. A parent of a young child with autism who participated in coaching, both in-person and through telehealth, will share her experiences.  

Learning Objectives:

  1. Understand strategies for engaging caregiver’s in intervention through telehealth platforms. 
  2. Identify various methods for providing resources and information through telehealth. 
  3. Identify potential benefits and barriers to conducting intervention through telehealth. 

This is a webinar sponsored by AUCD's Autism Special Interest Group for Autism Acceptance Month.
