Public Education is central to the Center’s core mission of enhancing the general public’s understanding of autism and its causes by promoting public education programs and disseminating the scientific findings and discoveries by SDSU faculty engaged in research in autism.

Our staff is out in the community throughout the year. We hold Brain Scienceworkshops with children, and Aging Brain, The Developing Brain, Early Childhood Development lectures and presentations geared towards adults and parents at the San Diego public libraries, museums, school and community fairs.

We are working with partners to create a set of trainings and workshops for individuals with autism spectrum disorder or their families, as well as for early childhood educators and other professionals working with people with developmental disorders. Take a look at our calendar for upcoming workshops!
