It was wonderful to collaborate with ArcMorris, The Arc of Essex County, and Spectrum for Living for two 2-day Adult Fundamentals of Structured TEACCHing trainings in Flanders, New Jersey!

Participants created schedules, work systems, and structured materials to support independent living, social, and leisure activities. They also developed visual calming routines for the people they support and practiced using a problem-solving process to better understand and respond to unmet needs.

One participant developed an especially creative calming-routine visual designed to be worn as a medal. Because many of the people they support are proud of their Special Olympics medals, this calming-routine medal builds on something already familiar and meaningful. The person can wear the visual, refer to the steps when needed, and feel proud of using a strategy that supports emotional regulation. One of the photos shows this thoughtful and individualized idea.

We appreciated everyone’s creativity, active participation, and commitment to making activities and environments more understandable, accessible, and meaningful.

We are delighted to announce the creation of the Autism Pioneer Mesibov Legacy Fund, made possible through the remarkable generosity of Gary Mesibov’s high school classmates. The fund honors Dr. Gary Mesibov's lasting impact as a mentor, educator, and leader at the TEACCH Autism Program at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The Autism Pioneer Mesibov Legacy Fund will launch an undergraduate summer research fellowship, providing students with valuable opportunities to work and learn at TEACCH each summer. By supporting future leaders in autism research and practice, the fellowship will help carry forward Dr. Mesibov's legacy of mentorship and dedication to the autism community. More information about the fellowship and application process will be shared soon.
