Description

The Self-Advocacy Toolkit is one of the many resources within the growing collection of resources in the AGU Lifespan Toolbox. Each week, we'll be sharing the audio from each toolkit so you can also listen in and learn more about these important topics.
In this Self-Advocacy Toolkit, we’ll be focusing on self-advocacy as well as discussing some of the specific needs autistic people have related to this topic. Each individual is in a different place and may benefit from learning about ideas and ways to support or seek support. Professionals, family members, and community members can gain a lot of insight from this resource and can share this at home and in their work.
ABOUT THE LIFESPAN TOOLBOX:
The Lifespan Toolbox is a free online resource for the autism community. The Toolbox consists of toolkits for each topic area important to the lifespan, particularly preparing for and navigating adulthood. This information is applicable for those who have a younger child on the autism spectrum, teens, and adults. In our experience, it’s never too early to be thinking about adulthood.

How do we prepare for and navigate adulthood? What are the resources out there that can help me? How can we all work together to promote the success of autistic people in the workplace, community, and at school? This podcast is an extension of the Autism Grown Up Resource Center for autistic adults, families, and professionals. Note that the needs of the autism community are HUGE and we are a small non-profit just getting started with resources. Not every episode may be for you and we aim to provide ideas and suggestions for individualization. Pick and choose what you need!
