The Autism Hub
The Autism Hub
Providing a central place to share information and resources from the work developed at Giant Steps
About
At Giant Steps we believe that sharing information and resources is fundamental to developing a shared understanding of best practice in Education and therapy services supporting the learning of individuals with Autism.
Children with autism tend to be very literal and therefore the way we support their understanding needs to be reflected in concrete and literal language. The Autism Hub provides a broad resource that is constantly being updated to add value, information and learning opportunities to children, parents and professionals.
We would like to extend our thanks to the many Giant Steps staff who have allowed their work to be shared for this purpose.
