À propos de l'événement
ABOUT THE EVENT
Our PRISMA (Precision Medicine in Autism) group is a multidisciplinary effort at University of Alberta, Casa Mental health, bringing together genetic counselors, child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrists, and other clinicians and researchers, under the direction of Dr. Daniel Moreno De Luca. We work closely with individuals with a diagnosis of autism or neurodevelopmental conditions who come to see us in the context of mental health needs, often helping to identify an underlying genetic diagnosis.
Throughout our work we honor and celebrate each person's uniqueness as we learn about their specific interests and passions, their "things", which has now become the basis of our campaign #whatsyourthing. We all have our “things”; we invite you to reflect on your own interests and passions, focusing on how the universality of the emotions that come up brings us all together beyond the constraints of any diagnoses. What is your thing?
In this collaboration with Positive Exposure, we use photography to raise awareness about the importance of diverse individual perspectives and their ability to collectively strengthen our shared humanity and our community.
