The book recognizes and celebrates the value of gainful employment for all individuals, that each of us has a unique contribution to make." --Gavin Newsom, Lieutenant Governor of California "[T]he autism community's move toward a better strategy for autism employment is just getting off the ground, and this book provides a road map to guide them forward. Those working in vocational rehabilitation fields and career professions and those supporting adults with autism will benefit from the information presented here." -- Library Journal "This book is rooted in the job placement experiences of AASCEND, a group of adults with autism in the San Francisco Bay Area. It builds on these experiences to draw together the main autism employment initiatives throughout the United States in recent years, and point us to better employment strategies, individually and collectively.
