Support for People with Autism
Educational Support Programs
Educational institutions play a key role in supporting autistic students. According to Anderson autism support programs in colleges or universities are specifically designed to support groups of autistic students. These programs may differ by institution but generally aim to offer both academic and emotional support.
The number of total students in each classroom ranged from 4 to 12 and the number of support staff ranged from 1 to 7. There was considerable variation in perceived implementation climate and program fidelity.
Technological Support
New advancements in technology are also contributing to the support system for people with autism. AI-powered chatbots, for instance, are being developed to provide more personalized and adaptive support.
