Parents of children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder experience many challenges as they navigate an autism spectrum disorder and seek to prioritize their own health during their journey. The relationship a parent has with themselves and their internal thoughts can further complicate the experience and either hinders or helps a parent to take care of their own health.
Rutgers school of nursing is seeking parents and primary caregivers of children who have a confirmed diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder interested in participating in a new study to gauge and answer questions about how levels of stress and self-compassion influence a parent’s health. Participants will be asked to complete a 20-minute online survey.
