Grandparents are significant role models and playmates for their young grandchildren. It is common for a grandparent to be unsure of how to support and connect with their grandchild after a new autism diagnosis.
Autism Speaks published ‘A Grandparent’s Guide to Autism’ that includes information about autism, tips on how to support autistic grandchildren and their parents, and long-distance grandparenting.
This free toolkit is available for download on the Autism Speaks’ website.
