Come join us for this exciting four session course, led by Susan Schoenfield. The four 90 minute sessions on consecutive Wednesday evenings will use acting techniques to get you up and moving and help you to better figure out how to read non-verbal cues in others as well as be more aware of how others perceive you. The class includes role-playing of job interviews and workplace situations.

Classes will be held at the Jewish Community Center, 6255 N. Santa Monica Blvd, Milwaukee
This class is for young adults in their 20’s who have Asperger Syndrome and would like to develop skills to better participate in the workplace, or practice for job interviewing.

Our parenting series presents workshops once a month during the school year. The target audience is parents of children recently diagnosed up through elementary school. Even though our workshops are designed for parents, they are free and open to the community. We are happy to welcome educators, childcare providers and extended family members – anyone who has an interest in learning more about living with autism. The workshops are free, but your online registration helps us have enough chairs, refreshments, and handouts ready. All our Parent Workshops are at Nicolet High School, 6701 North Jean Nicolet Road, Glendale.
