Presentation 1: Watch Me Grow
The Watch Me Grow program helps parents and service providers build awareness and skills in order to recognize developmental milestones and key signs of autism and other developmental delays through training and education. Once a child is identified with a developmental delay, AAoM can assist families and services providers through our MiNavigator professional consultation program to appropriate resources and support services.
