SUMMARY:Understanding and Managing Sensory Sensitivity with ASD
DESCRIPTION:Understanding and Managing Sensory Sensitivity in Children/Youth Living with Autism Spectrum Disorder\n\n\nPresented by: Neil Walker  (Autism Consultant) \nSensory sensitivity is recognized as a significant diagnostic criterion for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Hyper or hypp reactivity to sensory experiences can produce severe challenges in coping with sensory aspects of the environment for persons with ASD.
