Autism Expert from Australia, Speaker at “Autism/Aspergers 2004” Conference in B

PRWEB reports:

With over 1.5 million people in the United States diagnosed with a form of autism, including Asperger syndrome, it is critical for people (families, professionals and the general community) to become more educated about autism spectrum disorders, affecting 1 in 166 children today. Dr. Attwood, a clinical psychologist from Brisbane, Australia, brings over 30 years of experience with individuals with autism/Asperger’s/PDD. On Wednesday, October 20, 2004 he will be discussing innovative techniques for improving social skills, learning friendships, social skill groups for adolescence, and understanding and expressing emotions. This is a very rare opportunity in the U.S. to hear from one of the top minds on Asperger’s Syndrome and high functioning autism.
