Autism Services – Will Pictures Help My Child to Communicate?

As part of foundational family services, you may choose to meet for an individual session with a family support coordinator after attending a workshop, to help you apply the workshop content to your specific family situation.

In this workshop parents and caregivers will learn from an experienced ABA Family Support staff about communication styles and the use of pictures to communicate. Parents and caregivers will have an opportunity to ask the facilitator questions related to this topic.

As a result of participating in this workshop, you will be able to:

• Identify how your child is currently communicating.
• Understand different ways we can communicate.
• Learn the first step to teaching functional communication.
• Learn about the use of pictures as a form of communication.

Requirements: To access this workshop, or a follow-up session, you will need a valid Ontario Autism Program Reference number. If you do not have an OAP Reference number please contact the Maltby Centre at 613-546-8535 and ask to speak to a Family Support Coordinator. This is a free workshop.
