Crystal Allen, ABA Director at The Pediatric Place and providers from Burrell Behavioral Health, will share valuable insight on adults diagnosed with autism.
With one in 36 people diagnosed with autism, there is a significant portion of autistic adults who are undiagnosed until later in life. This community is often referred to as the "lost generation" and reports not fitting in, feeling isolated, overwhelmed and anxious in most social scenarios. Crystal Allen, ABA Director at The Pediatric Place and providers from Burrell Behavioral Health, will provide information on adult autism services, including the importance of mental health supports and tools for one's daily life.
