📖 Nest Community Book Club - next Monday at noon!

Back by request, we're reviewing Uniquely Human: A Different Way of Seeing Autism

"Dr. Barry M. Prizant offers a new and compelling paradigm: the most successful approaches to autism don't aim at fixing a person by eliminating symptoms, but rather seeking to understand the individual's experience and what underlies the behavior."

An incredibly helpful read for everyone! From clarifying and explaining a range of behaviors sharing a variety of tools for regulation and communication, this books is transformative!

Book Club meet-ups happen every other month at lunchtime on Mondays virtually. They are a part of our Nest Community offerings and available to all families as a part of our sliding scale subscription - down to $5/month.

Our next book: The Whole-Brain Child on Dec 8
