Monthly Learning Series: June

This month’s topic “Inflammation, Infections & Mold: Calming the Immune System to Support the Brain” explores how inflammation and immune system challenges can affect behavior, learning, and emotional regulation in individuals with autism. Families will learn about connections between infections, mold exposure, mast cell activation, and neuroinflammation. Experts will explain why these triggers can lead to regressions or symptom flare-ups. Practical strategies will help families identify triggers, reduce inflammation, and support long-term healing.

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.
