The coming holiday season is a joyful time of year that brings together families and friends. However, it can also be quite stressful, especially for those who have a child with autism.

With that in mind, FirstPath Autism would like to offer up tips to help handle everything from holiday party meltdowns to stress that can arise from schedule changes and holiday travels. While compiled for those with an autistic child in their lives, many of the tips work just as well for all families.
