On this week’s episode of IDD: Get to Know Me we speak to Courtney Weaver and Alex Echakowitz about the just-released Mental Health Literacy Guide for Autism, created by the Autism Mental Health Literacy Project (AM-HeLP). The guide is designed to “increase awareness and share knowledge around issues related to Autistic mental health. This guide is meant to be read by everyone, but most importantly by Autistic adults, family members, professionals, policy-makers and leaders.”
Alex and Courtney share their experience of working over the past two years with over 20 Autistic Advisors from across the country and researchers to help develop this guide.
Tune in to hear directly from Alex and Courtney why this guide is so important and how they hope it will be used. You will also hear a fun fact you may not know about Alex, Courtney and our hosts!
The Mental Health Literacy Guide for Autism was created by York University’s Dr. Jonathon Weiss and CAMH’s Dr. Yona Lunsky, as well as research staff and Autistic advisors.
