Depression is a common diagnosis across the autism community. In fact, over half of independent adults in the SPARK study suffer from it. SPARK and ADAA, a nonprofit that works to prevent, treat, and cure anxiety disorders and depression, co-hosted a timely and important webinar on Tuesday, October 26, 2021 during National Depression Education and Awareness Month.
Learn from a clinician, a researcher, and a social worker with autism who speak to the prevalence, assessment, diagnosis, treatment options, and experiences for those with co-occurring autism and depression.
Presented in partnership with SPARK.
SPARK is a landmark autism research project which aims to make important progress possible. SPARK stands for ‘Simons Foundation Powering Autism Research,’ and the mission is simple: we want to speed up research and advance our understanding of autism to help improve lives.
