Growing Old With Autism

Karl Taro Greenfeld's latest piece "Growing Old With Autism, " an op-ed in Sunday's edition of The New York Times, once again drives home the point which the media has not quite grasped -- that autism does not just affect children. There is a critical need for additional funding for services for adults on the autism spectrum, including day programs, employment training programs (yes, actually some individuals on the spectrum are employable and thrive in positions that require repetitive and what may seem mundane tasks), residential services, socialization and recreation programs, just to name a few.
