Vaccinate Your Children Protect your children by getting them vaccinated, and follow the vaccination schedule outlined by your child's pediatrician. Vaccines do not cause autism.

Dr. Yev Veverka shares simple, meaningful strategies to make mealtimes more joyful and inclusive for young eaters, especially those with autism. Small shifts can reduce stress, build confidence, and strengthen connection. Listen to the episode at catalight.podbean.com.

Mealtimes are more than food. They are about connection, culture, and belonging. For many families affected by autism, eating can feel overwhelming or unpredictable.
In this episode of Whatโ€™s Up with Catalight, Dr. Yev Veverka, BCBA clinician, researcher, and Director of Training and Consultation Services at the UW Autism Center, shares how to create meaningful, inclusive, and supportive mealtime experiences for all young eaters.
Drawing from the book Meaningful Mealtimes: Practical Strategies for All Young Eaters, Dr. Veverka offers practical ideas that can help:
โ€ข Reduce stress and increase joy at the table
โ€ข Build confidence and independence
โ€ข Strengthen connection at home, school, and in the community
โ€ข Support cultural food practices
Small, thoughtful adjustments can turn mealtime challenges into moments of growth and connection.
