Employment and college is not for everyone. Maybe self employment is just the

employment may be a viable option for your teen or young adult, tune in to this

important topic.

TOPIC: EVERYTHING THAT MATTERS: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW WHEN SEEKING ADULT

SERVICES FOR THE YOUNG ADULT

Tune-in to this program and hear what others say about building supports for a

family member or client with Aspergers or autism. You can also receive a free

evaluation tool I designed that can help you when seeking services and

determining the needed supports for your son or daughter with ASD or a

developmental disability. Negotiating services and supports for a young adult

becomes a confusing maze. I know the difficulties you are experiencing. I have

first hand experience in seeking and creating supports for my son Trent, who

has autism and is 31 years old.

What is the Program About?

Remarkably Able Radio Talk Show is designed to provide awareness and real

options that are based upon best practices to deliver quality of life for

people with ASD and their families. A national crisis currently exists because

of limited resources that disenable individuals with ASD from adolescence into

adulthood. Families are uncertain about how to help their teen or young adult.

People with autism have potential and strengths that make them remarkably able

in many ways. Putting together the pieces to create life opportunities begins

with establishing traditional and broad innovative supports that opens

opportunities for education, employment, leisure, peer relationships and

community membership.

Why this topic?

There are reliable treatments, therapy, and educational strategies that are

available for children with ASD. Every child with autism becomes an adult. As

youth enter their teens and then adult years, these strategies must be

integrated into a much wider framework of traditional and broad innovative

supports. Success is likely when supports meet the individual's wholistic

needs. This work remains undone. These comprehensive supports can enhance

individual capability levels across all life domains and revealed in my

research findings.

What is the focus?

The areas for discussion will include: emotional, social, educational,

vocational, medical, alternative options, political and spiritual. Interviews

with leading experts in the field will be conducted as well as interviews with

people who have ASD and their families. Effective tools, collaboration

strategies, and practical everyday solutions are discussed to help dissolve the

barriers and deliver to youth community participation, inclusion, and personal

growth. The ultimate goal is to offer hope for a better life to individuals

with ASD of all ages and their families.
