Comments
I work with the UNM Autism Programs in Albuquerque, NM. I am working on our next webcast entitled: Family Disaster Plan for Families Living with Autism. Is there anything that you, as a parent/caregiver/guardian or self-advocate, would like to know? Thank you for sending me an email at [email protected]
Hello All!
I was wondering if anyone had any information/interventions/resources/replacement behaviors for when a child with ASD has the impulse to destroy/smash projects that were built.
I understand that this may be done for sensory input, or when a child is upset. In this particular case, they are items that have brought joy to the family and the child is not observed to be angry (i.e. a Lego castle that the family built together, a snowman, a foam toy that he was using with his sibling). As soon as adult supervision is removed, these types of projects/items are smashed. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration!

Is it appropriate to ask for possible options for getting a diagnosis on here? I’m in need of a mental health professional who specializes in autism and particularly in autism for teenage girls.
I have two children (out of 5) that display traits of autism and it’s killing me to watch them in so much emotional pain over this. I have tried contacting a company and they put us on a diagnosis waiting list two years ago.
Is there a way to get in to someone sooner? A psychologist maybe that you would recommend? It’s been a long road and I’m tired of people who don’t understand telling me that my kids are fine since they’re generally performing well at school. Any recommendations would be extremely helpful.

We are pleased to offer a Family Training on Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), “You’re the Expert” via zoom in August. This training will be provided solely in Spanish and was created specifically for families and is being offered to those families in Gadsden and the surrounding areas. However, this training has also been opened up to all Spanish speaking families throughout the state. Each family member who registers can also invite one provider to view as well, who will also need to register. Providers must register with a family.
There is limited space, so please register early.
