    Episode 1 – Fostering Relational Health: How Simple and Ordinary Connections Matter in Challenging Times
    Wednesday, January 29, 2025, 3 PM ET / 12 PM PT
    When we feel uncertain and stressed as caregivers or educators, how do we show up for the children and families in our care? Amid the noise telling us what we do is “never enough,” Junlei Li, co-author of the Burke Foundation report Early Relational Health: A Review of Research, Principles, and Perspectives, reflects on the power of simple and everyday moments in challenging contexts.
    In conversation with Brazelton Touchpoints Center Executive Director Josh Sparrow, they explore the relational foundations and practices that nurture hope, resilience, and community. For caregivers, educators, and helping professionals, this session offers a practical reminder of our capacity to connect with, care for, and support one another.

  • Multi-Session Creative Writers’ Group for Adults

    Recurring
    Virtual

    Want to flex your creative muscles and share and discuss writing? The Online Creative Writers’ Group is an online 7 session workshop where participants will have an opportunity to share writing and offer feedback. We welcome writers of all creative genres—from short stories to poetry, screenplays, fan fiction, and more. This workshop is not an instructional class but rather a chance to connect and network with other writers. Whether you are working on a new piece or want to revisit an old one, here is your test audience. One session will feature talks by two published authors, including graphic novelists, playwrights, children’s book writers and more, all of whom have a connection to Autism. Hope you can join us!
