This workshop is being taught by an identifying PDA Autistic and therefore will be taught from an identity-positive framework. Come along to learn more about demand avoidance and also additional traits of PDAers. This knowledge will provide clarity on why distressing behaviours may be occurring and also guidance on how to support your PDA young person. We will round out our time together by learning some of the communication strategies that help build collaboration and teamwork with PDAers.
Each online course will have a max of 15 attendees and will be in a Workshop format.
The course will run 10am-12pm. Bookings close a week before the event to allow planning.
We apologise – but these courses are not suitable for children and there is no childcare available.
