Families with children on the autism spectrum can benefit
from these helpful tips for a safe and enjoyable Halloween

Dear Cathy,

Halloween is probably one of the most eagerly anticipated holidays by children. However, for the child on the autism spectrum, the Halloween experience of going to parties and trick-or-treating can be emotionally, physically and mentally over-stimulating, causing stress for the child and family members.

The Autism Society of America, dedicated to increasing public awareness about autism and addressing the issues faced by families touched by the condition, has prepared a special web page with helpful tips to make Halloween safe and enjoyable.

You may also want to share this information with neighbors, extended family, and friends to help them understand how to make the Halloween experience more pleasurable and positive for the child on the autism spectrum.

The ASA has additionally developed in-depth information on a variety of topics related to living with autism. Please call us at 1.800.3AUTISM or visit us online at www.autism-society.org for help and information on autism.

Best wishes for a safe, enjoyable Halloween experience for your child and family from all of us at the Autism Society of America.

Please support autism research,
 care services and advocacy

FORWARD TO A FRIEND
