Based on health guidance in California and San Diego, SNEB's Board of Directors has decided to transition our Annual Conference to a virtual event. You can now register for SNEB's Annual Conference this July 18-21 in San Diego.
The same cutting-edge research and innovative programming will still be featured. In fact, the digital format will make it easier for us to bring you more programming including 15 CEUs for live viewing. All sessions will be recorded and made available on demand, expanding that to 46 total CEUs.

Individuals on the autism spectrum are particularly vulnerable to health disparities in the current environment and, at the same time, must continue to strive for independence in the activities of daily living.
To bypass the challenges of social distancing and limited resources, Community Support Services, Inc. has created an 11-part video series on creating inclusive food preparation activities for individuals with autism who are currently house-bound. The videos offer pragmatic tips regarding ten food-related activities that occur naturally in residential kitchens and which are ideal for supporting independence.
