Join RCC’s Relate Program this fall for an interactive webinar focused on respectful and culturally safe practices for supporting neurodivergent populations. Presented by Registered Speech Language Pathologist and Certified RDI Program Consultant Kally-Anna Clinton, you’ll learn actionable strategies to improve social communication and expand your knowledge of various group and partnership exercises. This session focuses on strategies to support preschool or early elementary children. However, actions can be applied more broadly to older ages. By the end of the webinar, you’ll feel confident in promoting opportunities for children to discover their potential.

Webinar topics:

  • Strength-Based Understanding of the Brain & Autism (as it relates to socio-cognitive communication and dynamic intelligence)
  • Prioritizing Co-Regulation of Relationship Through Meaningful Every-day Experiences (by evaluating the complexities of neurodevelopmental play)
  • Enhancing Social Learning Opportunity by Adjusting Everyday Interactions to Meet the Child’s Needs (in any environment – home, school, community)
  • Supporting All Communication Channels & Natural Language Acquisition to Expand Broadband Reciprocal Communication (both gestalt and analytic language processing)
