ARFID & Restricted Eating: Autism Webinar
Description
When eating is hard for your child, mealtimes can be stressful. You may hear people say it’s just ‘fussy eating’, but you know it’s more complicated than that.
In this webinar, Margo White from Whole Body Nutrition will explain Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID). She’ll talk about what can make eating difficult for your child and share ways to support them without adding more pressure.
In this webinar we’ll explore:
What ARFID is and how it differs from fussy eating
Practical ways to support your child at mealtimes
Who can assess and diagnose ARFID
Where to find reliable information, resources and professional support
