Treating Autism International Conference:
18 – 19 June 2016, Brunel University, London
Two days of information, support and meeting people! A unique event for parents, carers, people with ASD, and professionals — all of whom can learn about a wide variety of practical HANDS-ON approaches that can improve health, learning, and quality of life for people with autism.
As well as gathering information, delegates can find new resources, widen their social circle of people travelling the same path, and take some time to relax and enjoy themselves.
