We are excited to announce our Westview EDU lineup for the 2024-2025 academic school year. Westview EDU is our education series for parents and caregivers of children with autism. We hope this year’s selection of topics and presenters represent the things our community most wants to learn about. Each presenter will be in-person at The Westview School in Largent Hall on Thursdays at 9:15 AM. Presentations will last for one hour, with a ZOOM option available. Visit our website for registration details.
