There is an urgent need for understanding how life unfolds across the lifespan for people on the autism spectrum. Medical and clinical interventions are vital, but we must also learn about the experiences that help or hinder quality of life for people on the autism spectrum, their families, and our communities. This presentation will apply a life course perspective to frame our understanding of the current science on transition for youth on the autism spectrum, including population-level services research from the National Autism Data Center and findings from transition programs at the A.J. Drexel Autism Institute. Policy and practice interventions will also be shared.
