Taking care of a loved one with autism is a journey of love, patience, and resilence. As you strive to provide the best for your child, it's equally crucial to remember self-care. This month, join TACA as we delve into self-care for caregivers. Learn tools and techniques to take care of your physical and mental health.
The Autism Community in Action (TACA) provides general information regarding medical research, treatment options, therapies and nutrition to the autism community. The information comes from a variety of sources and is not independently verified by TACA. Nothing presented in print or at meetings should be construed as medical or legal advice. Always consult your child's doctor regarding his or her individual needs.
