My name is Christine and I am a wife and mother. God has blessed us with two boys who are on the Autism Spectrum and I am challenged and rewarded every day with this amazing blessing. I have presented on demystifying autism and sensory processing for Joni and Friends family camps trainings as well as equipping workshops with churches wanting to set up programs to serve individuals with disabilities.

2016 Workshop

Special Needs: Becoming an Autism and Sensory Friendly Church

3/4/2016

We will discuss how sensory issues play a part in behavior and interactions with other people. Awareness of this issue can help you see through other's eyes how your church effects their sensory processing and how you can make it a more comfortable and welcoming space. We will also discuss strategies for setting up an effective learning environment with various supports that will help both learners and volunteers.
