From Access to Inclusion: Redesigning Communities for Individuals with Autism

In this episode of the EarliPoint Exchange, Dr. Cheryl Tierney and Kirsten Yurich, BCBA, are joined by Dr. Wendy Ross, a nationally recognized leader in advancing inclusive care and community access for individuals with autism.

This conversation moves beyond traditional clinical settings to explore how inclusion is built across everyday environments. Dr. Ross, a behavioral pediatrician and the director of Jefferson Health’s Center for Autism and Neurodiversity, shares her work designing sensory-friendly experiences in children’s museums, partnering with major sports organizations and the airline industry to create more accessible fan experiences, and guiding authentic autism representation in media, including her collaboration with the hit show The Pitt on the character “Mel.”

Together,we will examine how healthcare providers, community institutions, and systems leaders can move from awareness to action—creating environments that are not only accommodating, but truly welcoming and supportive for neurodiverse individuals and their families.

The webinar will be held on June 24, 2026, from 12PM-1PM, and includes 1 BACB® GEN CEU. Attendance is included free with a BehaviorLive subscription, and registrants will also have access to the recorded session on-demand for CEUs.
