As an instructional aide in an adult transition class, so often parents ask me my opinions or suggestions on their child's options after they leave the school system. Now I have something to offer them. I would highly recommend this wonderful, well-thoughtout resource highlighting so many wonderful areas and ideas. This tool offers and opens up so many doors of opportunity. What I love best is that it concentrates so much on the individual's strengths, interests and abilities while also considering the individuals challenges. The resource guide is so full of worksheets, skills assessments, goals, actions plans, etc., that it offers a wide variety ways to map out a path for a person with ASD...from those who can be completely independent to those who can find independence through community and family supports. I also love the personal touches of Dr. Marquette as well as her son's (Trent's)colorful illustration for the cover.

I have only started the book, but it seems to live up to its advertising
