As a member of the Cognitive / Neurological Team, Melanie specializes in learning disabilities, mental impairments, developmental disabilities, autism spectrum disorders, and brain injuries.

AMAs are not presentations but rather hour-long interactive question & answer webinars with an expert in employment. Regardless of whether you are a person living with a mental health condition, a family member, an administrator of a service, a provider, or a researcher, people from anywhere get answers to their questions. 



AMA-E webinars are also available as podcasts on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube Music
