Enter event description
Please join Autism Community Network this Friday for our virtual Coffee & Connection series. We are pleased to welcome Christine Williamson, Director of Gifted & Talented Education for San Antonio ISD. She will be discussing Twice Exceptional (2e) children/individuals.
2e is a compelling discussion which needs to be top of mind for educators, parents, policy makers, caregivers, etc. Often gifted children will also present with learning challenges and/or disabilities which makes an appropriate educational experience quite unique for them. And in the spirit of a neurodiversity affirming, strengths based, child-led educational success it is incumbent upon adult autists, allistics, caregivers, and educators to be immersed in this concept.
This program is free and open to the public thanks to a partnership with the City of San Antonio Department of Human Services. If you are interested in joining us for this important conversation please email coffee@acn-sa.org.
