Publisher's Synopsis
"Just as schools educate young people to become responsible citizens who can navigate the world of post-secondary education, careers, and social life, dedicated parents also want a child who matures and is able to be independent and happy. A young person transitioning to adulthood encounters many obstacles to succeed in the adult world, among them include finances, skills for independent living, job security, and social connections. Transitioning from School to Adulthood: Practical Activities for Youth with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Other Disabilities is a collection of descriptions, instructions, and practice activities for young people who have more barriers than most emerging adults. These activities would be helpful for teachers, service providers, or parents who assist individuals with ASD, along with other disorders, such as Cognitive or Intellectual Disorders, Developmental Delays, and Specific Learning Disabilities.
