Autistic people have more than three-fold higher rates of suicide and suicide attempts than the general population; yet the signs and symptoms of depression and anxiety can look different for Autistic people. Lisa Morgan, self-advocate and national suicide expert, will present on the topic. Panelists will discuss the latest research on the subject and their personal experiences. Learn about the very important role of parents and loved ones can play in:
- Identifying the signs and symptoms that someone is at risk
- Recognizing and responding effectively to the warning signs in Autistic people
- Implementing strategies to help prevent suicide
