Does Halloween cause anxiety in your family? Is trick-or-treating both fun and nerve-wracking at the same time?
This workshop, presented by the Mary A. Rackham Institute will help children learn social, communication, and safety skills around Halloween, and then practice these skills in a safe environment.
