The New Kid on the Sesame Street Block

October 21, 2015 By Diane

READi Lab Director Wendy Stone is featured in a UW Today article for her contributions to Sesame Street’s new autism initiative, “See Amazing in All Children”, which launched this morning! Wendy has served as an advisor to Sesame Street since 2009, when she and Vanderbilt colleague Evon Batey Lee, PhD were commissioned to write a white paper describing the state of the science of autism and how Sesame Street could use their creative programming and wide reach to impact the lives of children with autism, their families, and their communities. Six years later, the fruit of their efforts paid off in this broad-based initiative that introduces Julia, Sesame Street’s first character with autism, and includes multimedia activities and materials for siblings, parents, educators, and other providers designed to promote understanding, acceptance, and support for this group of “amazing” children. Visit the “See Amazing in All Children” site to check out the new resources!
