Last week's segment on caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's during the COVID-19 Pandemic generated several questions and one significant suggestion: what advice do you have for parents caring for a loved one with autism? Dr. Greg got some answers from Family Support Specialist Melanie Tyner-Wilson of the UK Division of Developmental Behavioral Pediatrics. She's also a team member of Autism Society of the Bluegrass.
Melanie suggests several helpful resources including:
- Autism Speaks COVID-19 Resources
- Autism Society of America
- Autism Society of the Bluegrass website
- Autism Society of the Bluegrass Facebook page
- Supporting Individuals with Autism Through Uncertain Times guide
