We've had a really tough time recruiting for this project, and would be SO grateful if any eligible people could spare some time to take part and/or if people could share our ad. It's such an important and under-studied topic - we really want to do it justice (pardon the pun!)

Are you new to treating childhood apraxia of speech (CAS)? Or maybe you're trying an approach that's just not working? ⁠Check out Dynamic Temporal and Tactile Cueing (DTTC). It has a great research base for kids with CAS, and we found some updated research and links to free trainings! Read more at: https://t.co/DfxQOtYOPd

So refreshing to see a study that promotes greater understanding (vs pathologisation) of autistic play. Fab work from @EmmaPritchard95 @KatieB_Howard @DrJennyG + @Cdelemos, in @AutismAdulthood

Very useful self advocacy phrases to teach #autistic children:
“I’d like a different choice.”
“I can’t think clearly here.”
“I want to think about it.”
“I don’t have the answer now.”
“That person makes me uncomfortable.”
“No means NO.”
