Profound Autism: The Stories We Can’t Afford to Ignore  
Friday November 13th, 2026 @ 9:00am - 10:30am


Profound autism is often left out of today’s autism conversation, despite representing individuals with the highest support needs. In this candid and personal presentation, Eileen Lamb explores the lived experience of profound autism through the lens of parenting, advocacy, safety concerns, communication barriers, caregiving, and public perception.
