October is Sensory Awareness Month

Throughout the US, Canada and England the month of October is Sensory Awareness Month. This is a time to raise awareness regarding sensory integration/sensory processing disorders within your community.

As continuing education is limited regarding this topic in the region, I thought I would share another e-learning course which is provided by the SPD (Sensory Processing Disorder) Foundation:

E-course: "MAKING SENSE OF SENSORY PROCESSING DISORDER"

Offered online at: http://www.spdfoundation.net/elearn/

Educate yourself by reading about sensory issues. Many books can be purchased online.

See the book list on the SPD website: http://www.spdfoundation.net/books.html, which links you to purchase these books through Amazon.
