AAHR Clinical Advisory Board
The AAHR Clinical Advisory Board (CAB) members’ diverse practice contexts, medical specialties, research, and clinical experiences shaped the development of our course for medical professionals, Clinical Care for Autistic Adults, in which many of them serve as lead faculty. We’ve drawn on that wisdom in the development of this site. They have been generous with sharing the knowledge, practical tools, and patient-centered approaches that allow them to deliver quality care to the autistic patients they serve, and we are grateful to them for working with us to share their expertise.
