Back to School - It's Transition Time!

"My greatest hope for my son with autism entering kindergarten is that he makes friends and is encouraged to be social while being safe."

The transition from summer back to school can be tough for everyone, especially families of individuals with autism. The daily routine established
over the last 2 to 3 months is changing, and the time has come to go from camp back to the classroom. This month's Community Connections is
dedicated to supporting families as they help their children pack up their backpacks and head back to school.
