Autism/Asperger's webcast

Wow. I've never done a webcast before, but this popped up on my email from Exceptional Parent magazine, which my mom used to subscribe to and I recently went looking through for information.

I've heard Tony Attwood speak before and he's incredibly engaging and helpful. Temple Grandin is autistic herself, and she is very talented and has been very successful. I'd love to see more information for adults. We seem to have caught up with the kids, but the adults are still in a lurch when it comes to holding down a job and things of that nature. It's a hard road, but not nearly impossible.

Here it is:
