The reality of autism adulthood? Most will face isolation, unemployment, and systemic neglect. This is every parent's worst nightmare. JoyDew’s workshops will foster a safe and collaborative space for parents to discuss their pain points. Below are sample questions for discussion during this workshop session:
- Which services or supports have been most critical to your family before your child turned 21, and why?
- What strategies or resources will help you successfully maximize the services for your child before and after turning 21?
