[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have an adult DC with autism.  In today’s vernacular they are level one, low support.  They are 26 and have a good job.

They lived at home for the first 3 years Post college and now live in their own apartment. They need help with cleaning the apartment and other things.  They generally consult with us on various decisions.  We see them about once a week and FaceTime several times during the week.  They are still active with their friend group online, but Covid has stunted their ability to find a friend group locally.  They are in a job that is stereotypical for level one, low support, and have been able to do a few things outside of work with co-workers.  The problem is that, for the most part, they are all still working from home.  I think working in the office would be beneficial to them and their co-workers at this point in their careers.

What exactly is a stereotypical job for a level one ASD person? My DC is about to graduate from college with a STEM degree and is having a hard time interviewing and landing a job despite great qualifications.[/quote] computer/electrical engineering in the aerospace industry. [/quote]
