Proof Positive’s Learning Institute leads the way in Positive Psychology and Autism

Last week in Princeton, New Jersey, C4B client Proof Positive brought together leaders in the autism education space from across the country for their inaugural Learning Institute. Held at the Princeton Public Library on June 15, the Learning Institute was designed to engage autism professionals about how we can champion wellbeing in the autism community, with nationally-recognized speakers and experts in autism and positive psychology.

Proof Positive, co-founded locally in New Jersey by Katie Curran, MAPP, and Dr. Patricia Wright, PhD, MPH, is a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the wellbeing of autistic people and their families, providers, and communities. While research shows that autism wellbeing outcomes are unacceptably low, positive psychology tells us that happiness can be learned, and through key efforts like the Learning Institute, Proof Positive is on a mission to spread the science and skills of happiness to the autism community.
