As we just pass World Autism Awareness Day on April 2nd, we are excited to collaborate with Dr. Siva Priya Santhanam. She debunks myths related to ASD, sheds light on the strength-based model of disability, and discusses the impacts of bilingual language exposure. She talks about the AAC devices and how we can determine the candidacy for the same. Dr. Santhanam imparts some great tips for the practicing clinician and the students, especially those working with individuals with ASD.
