"This survival guide for autistic adults is aimed at the young adult market - a sort of next step after the college experience - but the advice could be relevant across different age ranges (i.e parents could be planning ahead and buy for their 16-18 year old). The author is 25 and autistic and she felt that there was a gap in the market for people at her stage of life. Having all this practical advice about independent living in one place makes transitions to independent living easier and less daunting. The book features clear guidance on key issues, such as managing money, the job hiring process and the importance of mental health and self-care, and includes interviews with experts in certain areas"-- Provided by publisher.
