Hamilton Wenham SEPAC Sponsored Virtual Event "Fostering Self-awareness and Self-advocacy in Youth with Social Cognitive Deficits" When raising youth with social cognitive deficits, we talk a lot about perspective-taking and often set annual IEP goals and objectives related to thinking about and accommodating others. This makes sense because students with autism, social communication disorder, nonverbal learning disability, and related developmental and learning difficulties are known to struggle with their perceptions about the people in the world around them. However, another important area of challenge for many students with social cognitive deficits is developing self-awareness and self-concept. This is a critical skill set for students of all ages, as understanding yourself and your needs is a key step in identity development. Moreover, being able to notice when you may need support and ask for help is vital for getting your needs met adequately. In this talk, we will discuss ways that parents/caregivers and educators can help youth, from early ages through young adulthood, to develop increased awareness of learning style, cognition, areas of strength, interests, as well as challenges, disability-related needs, and self-management strategies. We will also discuss disability disclosure and acceptance, including student participation in their team meeting process-which will be important preparation for the NEW MA IEP format that students will be participating in beginning in Fall 2024.
