Did you know that 90% of the autism spectrum diagnosed (ASD) adults are underemployed or unemployed?
There are two main causes for this social dilema. First, only 16% of autism spectrum diagnosed (ASD) students will complete some form of post secondary schooling. Second, only 17% of adults from the ages 20- 25 have ever lived independently. Comparatively 44% of non ASD adults will recieve an associates degree and 34% will recieve a bachelors degree. Greater than 70% percent of non ASD adults will be living independently by 25 years old.
In short, ASD adults are not acquiring the skills necessary to be competitive in society.
Did you know that this enormous gap can be reduced?
With the proper support these statistics change dramatically. Support programs report that graduation rates increase to 80%. Attrition and failure rates lower from 86% to only 16%. Student average GPA's hover around 3.0. We believe that the application of similar flexible support can produce results in different social skills based areas such as independent living and employment.
Our mission is to develop a flexible and adaptable ASD support network which will meet the needs of the autism community. Currently, our goal is to provide transitional housing, academic guidance, and life skills training to adults pursuing post secondary education.
