Webinar #2:
Culturally & Linguistically Responsive ASD Identification with Dr. Bryn Harris
Disparities in ASD identification, particularly by race/ethnicity and socioeconomic indicators, have been documented for decades. Despite the awareness, reduction of these disparities has been limited. This advanced-level webinar will provide national and Texas state data pertaining to trends in ASD identification disparities. Participants will gain knowledge pertaining to the potential impact of culture and language on ASD assessment practices, culturally and and linguistically responsive ASD identification strategies, and promising practices that lead to earlier and more accurate ASD identification in traditionally underserved populations. Presenter: Dr. Bryn Harris
