Did you know…
When an event is autism-friendly, or specifically tailored for individuals on the spectrum, they are likely to have staff present with special training or knowledge on the accommodations.
For example they may know that:
Some individuals on the spectrum are uncomfortable making eye contact but don’t mean it to be rude.
Body language, facial expressions and gestures can be misinterpreted or altogether missed by people on the spectrum, so being direct is a more efficient way of communicating.
Popular phrases and sayings may be taken literally.
If the person has limited speech ability, adapt with sign language or symbols.
Transparency about the order of things and the plan can make attendees feel more comfortable.
