The webinar will provides a unique platform for a number of parents to speak first-hand of their experiences with autism. On the night, parents Ciara Jones, Cathal McDaniels and Caroline Poole will each speak to their own personal stories about their family’s journey with autism. The parents will discuss their individual experiences to date, the process of understanding their child’s autism, accessing support and sharing their own family’s milestones and progress. Due to the nature of this upcoming webinar, it will only be available through the livestream and will not be recorded for later viewing.
Commenting on the upcoming webinar Adam Harris, CEO of AsIAm “AsIAm is thrilled to continue to deliver Community Support Seminars to families across Ireland with the kind support of SuperValu. With the changing nature of our environments over the past year it is vital to provide additional support to our community. As all seminars are available live online, members from across Ireland have the opportunity to gain knowledge and advice from trained experts.”
Ian Allen, Managing Director at SuperValu said, “As sponsors of the community support seminars we are delighted to witness their continued success and value to the autism community. During this challenging time it is vital that we support the autism community now more than ever and ensure resources such as the webinar series continue to provide support and create pathways for greater inclusion across Ireland.”
SuperValu is committed to raising understanding and awareness of autism among its customers and staff. With over 50,000 families in Ireland living with autism, those affected face barriers to inclusion because of the attitudes of people who may not have first-hand experience of autism.
This programme is supported by SuperValu Ireland.
