Preparing for College with Jane & LorreA two-session webinar 
Over two evenings, join presenters Jane Thierfeld Brown, EdD, and Lorraine Wolf, PhD, college disability directors and authors of A Parent's Guide to College for Students on the Autism Spectrum, as they talk about the key steps needed for success after high school for students with Asperger Syndrome and related conditions.

Topics include: 
  • Assessing readiness for post-secondary education.
  • How to work with your teen/young adult to develop skills needed for success in college and beyond, including independence, self- regulation, and organizational skills.
  • Learning how to decide which college environments might be a good match for your teen.
  • The insider's view of the accommodations process in college: laws and strategies parents and teens need to know, and how to work with college personnel or employers to foster success.
