TRANSITIONS IN AUTISM

To address all of the complexities around autism it is vital to look at the environments the individual lives in. By environment I mean not just the physical environment but family members, work colleagues, teachers or any other significant people in their lives. How a person with autism interacts, communicates and behaves is also dependant on how we interact, communicate and behave towards them. It is not always about asking the individual with autism to adjust themselves. Often, we as a society, workplace or school have to look at ourselves and our role in the lives of people with autism...
