Autism/ASD Forum, May 23, St. Cloud MN

I will be participating in an Autism / Asperger's Syndrome forum for families on Monday, May 23, in St. Cloud Minnesota. The event is at Apollo High School from 6:30 p.m. until 8:00 p.m.

The address is:
Apollo High School
1000 44th Ave N
St Cloud, MN 56303
The roundtable discussion is for parents, young adults, and teens. I believe there will be a short introduction by the autism support specialists for District 742. Arc Midstate, a non-profit dedicated to life-long services for individuals with special needs, will also have someone on hand to answer questions.

For more information:

This event will likely be the last appearance I have in Minnesota, at least for a few years. I will always appreciate the generosity of the Midstate schools and organizations.

I also strive to use innovative, tailored instructional methods, especially for those challenged in mathematics, which is often a barrier to STEM careers.
