Autism Employment Supports

Do you or a family member or friend with autism need help with the “soft skills” required to land and keep a job?
Would you like guidance on what career field would be best?
Do you or your friend or family member need individualized support on the job?

Not sure where to start? ASNC can help

• Job Skills, Preferred Activities, and Vocational Assessments: Our employment supports staff is trained in assessing and supporting the exploration of an individual’s skills and interests.
• Job Development: Our staff is skilled in teaching individuals how to find and be hired for jobs that suit them, including providing support in tasks such as interviewing, creating a resume, and networking. We work with employers and individuals to ensure successful matches.
• On-the-Job Training: For those who have a job, our staff supports individuals in learning the skills involved, learning a skill that is added to the requirements, and maintaining employment. Training on soft skills such as interactions with co-workers and supervisors is also included.
• Long-Term Training and Support: Our staff is trained to implement the state and federally funded long-term training and support services. These services are also available as private-pay options. ASNC’s staff collaborates with each individual and his or her treatment team to develop and implement a long-term, individualized plan to achieve maximum independence and maintain the job.
• JobTIPS: Free 12-week courses are available online to help individuals gain the necessary skills to gain employment.
