About This Event
Join the Autism Society of Indiana on April 22, 2025 at 7:00 PM for a virtual event titled "Females on the Autism Spectrum." This session aims to shed light on the unique presentation of autism in females, a topic often overlooked due to traditional diagnostic criteria primarily based on male characteristics.
The discussion will begin by identifying the distinct signs of autism in women, such as social difficulties, challenges in reading social cues, and the tendency to camouflage or mask behaviors to fit in socially. Understanding these subtleties is crucial, as many women remain undiagnosed or receive a diagnosis later in life.
Following this, the event will explore effective strategies and resources tailored to support females on the spectrum. Topics will include coping mechanisms, self-care techniques, and the development of social skills, all aimed at enhancing daily functioning and overall well-being.
This event is ideal for women on the autism spectrum, their families, caregivers, and professionals seeking to deepen their understanding and support systems. Register today!
Note: This event is part of the Autism Society of Indiana's "30 Days of Autism," a month-long series of events fostering community and connection throughout Indiana.
