“Children don’t leap from meltdown to calm on their own. They first need the steady presence of a caring adult to co-regulate, before learning the skills of self-regulation. And when things go wrong, repair is the bridge that restores connection and trust.”

1 in 45 adults in the U.S. are diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). While society is much more aware of autism today than ever before thanks to improved public health outreach and increased screening, advocacy and awareness efforts, there are likely many adults with autism who never received a diagnosis or were misdiagnosed.

You may have spent your entire life not recognizing the signs of autism or not realizing that some of the issues and feelings you have dealt with were related to autism. If you suspect you may be autistic or you know an adult who may be on the spectrum, learning about the common signs of autism is the first step to understanding whether you or your loved one may have undiagnosed ASD.

Dyslexia and dysgraphia are distinct neurological learning differences that often co-occur. Dyslexia primarily affects reading and language processing (such as decoding words and spelling), while dysgraphia impairs the physical act of writing and organizing thoughts on paper.

Because both conditions involve language processing, they frequently appear together. When a person has both, writing and reading tasks require massive amounts of cognitive energy. A child with co-occurring conditions may struggle immensely to get their brilliant ideas onto paper because they are exhausted by the physical and mental hurdles of spelling and handwriting.

Effective Interventions & Support:

For Dyslexia: Structured Literacy programs, multi-sensory reading techniques, and speech-language therapy are highly effective.

For Dysgraphia: Occupational Therapy (OT) helps strengthen hand muscles, correct grip, and improve spatial awareness needed for handwriting. ( Education Center ❤️)
