Do you know a non-vocal child on the autism spectrum? Our very own US Autism Association Advisory Board member and Non-Vocal Advocate Sameer Dahar and US Autism Association Advisory Board members Dr. Stephen Shore and Rob Bernstein are joined by Erika Anderson to discuss the RPM method. Erika is a Certified RPM provider and the only apprentice to Soma Mukhopadhyay, the RPM method founder. In this session, both Erika and Sameer discuss the specific reasons why RPM gives some non-vocal individuals on the autism spectrum a better method for communication. Expertly moderated by US Autism Association Advisory Board member Theresa Wrangham, this episode is extra special as Sameer Dahar, who is a student of the RPM Method and is a non-vocal person on the autism spectrum, together with his teacher Erika, shares his own behind-the-scenes look at the RPM approach.

The US Autism Association is a 501(C)(3) non-profit organization which boasts a proud network of world-renowned professionals with expertise in Autism. We hold the belief that if you want to understand autism, ask someone who is diagnosed. For this reason, the US Autism Association draws heavily from its Advisory Board, a majority of whom are either diagnosed themselves or are parents of those diagnosed.
