The #ActuallyAutistic guide to building independence

£15.99

An empowering guide for Autistic teens and young adults transitioning into adulthood, with tips on successful allyship for friends and family. With real-life experiences from the Autistic community, this encouraging book is what you need to ensure home, education, work, and social experiences support your independence in the best way possible.

ISBN: 9781805010005 Author: Elizabeth, Brunton,,Jennif Publisher: Jessica Kingsley Publishers Publication Date: 7th October 2024 Imprint: Jessica Kingsley Publishers Cover: Paperback Dewey: 618.9285882 (edition:23) Pages: 240 Language: English Readership: Children - juvenile / Code: J Category: Individual Needs Subjects: Autism & Asperger?s Syndrome, Children's / Teenage personal & social issues: Self-awareness & self-esteem

Transitioning into adulthood is already difficult, but being young and Autistic can make it so much harder. Leaving the protections and supports of childhood behind can feel daunting. In a world that often marginalises Autistic people, how do you begin to figure out and pursue your own goals and dreams, while also managing the new challenges of adulthood?

This empowering book is here to help you (and your Neurodiverse family and friends who love you) learn how to navigate these transitions on your own terms and timeline. It recognises that no matter where you are – home, school, college, work, out with friends – you have the right to be heard, to feel safe and comfortable, and to chart your own path to success. And it will give you the tools you need to make sure that happens.

So join us to hear #ActuallyAutistic teens and young adults share their experiences, helping you to move towards independence and show your allies how they can support you in this journey.
