Individuals with autism and their caregivers face unique challenges in later childhood and adolescence. This volume translates research on the needs of this population into practical recommendations for clinicians and educators. The book features vivid case examples and an in-depth, reproducible assessment form. Accessible guidance and hands-on suggestions are provided for supporting positive behavior, communication, and social skills; managing issues related to mental and physical health and sexuality; helping families access services and navigate the legal system; and optimizing the educational and transition planning process. This book will be invaluable for clinical and school psychologists, child and adolescent psychiatrists, social workers, special educators, speech#xE2;#xAC;#x1C;language pathologists, and other child health and education professionals.
