About this listen

 Welcome to Supporting the Spectrum: a podcast designed to bring you news about research, services, and supports for children with autism and non-typical neurodevelopment and their families. Supporting the Spectrum is hosted by the University of Missouri’s Thompson Center for Autism and Developmental Disorders Training and Education Division (TED). This podcast is brought to you by Training Experts in Autism for Missouri (TEAM) project sponsored by the Missouri Department of Mental Health. Though the topics discussed are geared towards families and professionals providing direct support to individuals with autism, we encourage all to listen. We hope that the conversations shared will provide insight and generate new ideas on how we as a community can create and embrace more inclusive experiences for all.© 2020 Thompson Center Hygiene & Healthy Living Parenting Psychology Psychology & Mental Health Relationships
