Regulation Supports for Autistic Students

Autistic students often communicate their needs through their behavior. Increased stimming, difficulty focusing, withdrawal, and frequent movement are not signs of defiance or lack of motivation. They are usually signs that the student is overwhelmed, under-supported, or working hard to regulate their nervous system.

This free downloadable reference guide helps educators recognize common signs of dysregulation and identify practical supports that may help students regain a sense of safety and readiness to learn. Instead of focusing on compliance, the guide encourages educators to consider what a student’s behavior might be communicating and respond with proactive, supportive strategies.
