The Hidden Curriculum Series: Promoting Internet Safety for Individuals with Autism

Our next Hidden Curriculum topic will be about Internet Safety!

Autism Spectrum Disorder is a neurological disorder that affects social communication and language.  The most basic detail to a social situation usually needs to be "taught"  to a person on the spectrum. 

If you are saying phrases such as:

  • I shouldn't have to tell you, but...
  • It should be obvious that...
  • Everyone knows that...
  • No one ever...
Then the Hidden Curriculum has been violated.

This FREE seminar will focus on issues regarding the hidden rules of Internet/Social Media use. We will cover basic things people on the spectrum should and should NOT do to avoid legal issues in the future.

Child care will be available ($2 a child).
