Through the Spectrum Advantage program, we're fostering stronger communication between employers and their autistic employees. Our program includes employment coaching, which provides essential support for both employers and autistic employees, enhancing workplace success.
We're not just about finding jobs; we're about ensuring success in the workplace. Our services extend far beyond job placements.
Advocating for accommodations is a critical aspect of self-advocacy for individuals with autism, especially in workplace settings. Accommodations are adjustments that are made to the environment, tasks, or processes to ensure that a person can participate fully and effectively.
Let's be honest, not all workplaces provide the support needed, and the majority are not designed with individuals on the spectrum in mind. We help employers better understand their autistic employees and equip employees with the tools they need to succeed.
We're not just about finding jobs; we're about ensuring success in the workplace. Our additional service include: Advocacy for Accommodations Academic Strategy Sessions Organizational Tools Coaching Supports thespectrumadvantage.com
