Thank you for the MOM, Ksenia. For point 3, do you mean the training course some of us attended in Feb?

      Hello everyone!

The Black History Month event was truly inspiring!! I am grateful for our willingness to work as a team to make the event successful. Also, what a dynamic conversation we had! Thank you all for sharing! As promised, please find the resources below that inspired my presentation on Black Joy. I also added more information about the disparity of autism in minority children. Resources for the disparity in health and nutrition are also included. Happy reading!

   Autism Article:

A Multiyear National Profile of Racial Disparity in Autism Identification


Highlights from the Article:

Children from racially and ethnically diverse families may be less likely to receive a timely clinical diagnosis of autism outside of the school setting and instead may rely on special education screening and assessment processes for autism identification. If so, this could delay the administrative identification and reported prevalence of autism among diverse students in public schools.

The findings in this study raise a possibility that racially diverse students are being identified with autism at later ages or are misidentified. Consequently, students are not receiving early intensive behavioral interventions during the critical time period in which they are likely to confer the greatest benefit.
