Navigating Adult Transitions on the Spectrum
Transitioning from school to adulthood—higher education, careers, and independent living—is a major life step. For autistic teenagers, this transition requires planning, building executive functioning skills, and self-advocacy. Our services help young adults build practical life skills and prepare for their goals.
Core Transition Goals
-
Independent Living Skills: Managing personal schedules, budgeting, shopping, and self-care routines.
-
Academic Planning: Selecting college environments that offer appropriate disability support services.
-
Career Readiness: Identifying professional strengths, writing resumes, and practicing interview skills.
-
Self-Advocacy Training: Learning how to request accommodations and navigate new environments.
