Community Outreach seminar success for educators in N.TX

[Guest guest]

The North Texas Autism Education Center (also dba Lone Star Learning

Center) is a non-profit organization founded by parents and

professionals to educate children with autism, their families and

the professionals dedicated to helping children with autism reach

their highest potential.

Our most recent Community Outreach workshop " Effective Educational

Planning using The Assessment of Basic Language and Learning Skills

(The ABLLS) " was held on Saturday, April 3, in Plano. Gail Wayman,

M.Ed., BCABA, conducted the half-day workshop, which was one

requested most by our past professional attendees. Registration was

limited to 30 professionals to allow for a highly-interactive format

with hands-on training. These professionals included classroom

Teachers, Paraprofessionals, and Speech-Language Pathologists from

local school districts as well as those as far away as Wichita

Falls, and Oklahoma. We also had attendees from local ECI offices

as well as the Autism Treatment Center. These 30 professionals

serve over 170 children with autism.

Thanks to the generous donations towards last year's golf marathon

fundraiser, we were able to offer this workshop at no charge and to

allow attendees to purchase the ABLLS sets at a 20% discount.

We plan to repeat this workshop again and open it up to parents as

well. We are receiving lots of great input from the community to

guide our future workshop topics. We have also received several

requests to conduct workshops on site at local clinics and schools

as well as other areas of Texas. It is so exciting to see so many

professionals dedicated to learning more about teaching children

with autism!
