Garden Academy Webinar Series

Garden Academy's leadership team hosted a live webinar for our families and the broader autism community on Friday, March 20th from 3:00 to 4:30pm. This webinar was designed for families who are concerned about their child(ren) engaging in problem behavior at home during this time of social distancing. They reviewed some temporary strategies that families can use to avoid or reduce problem behavior and to maintain safety in the home.
