Description

Outcomes in adulthood for individuals with autism spectrum and related disorders have remained poor for decades in the areas of independent living, employment, personal relationships, integration into the community, and other measures that greatly contribute to quality of life. This is largely in part due to the relatively little education and training provided to practitioners when it comes to what skills to teach and how in order to positively contribute to a meaningful adult life. While many skills-based assessments and curricula exist already, Make it Meaningful is intended to fill the void that exists for information guiding practitioners in creating individualized programming to ensure each learner maximizes their instructional time to adequately prepare them for the rest of their lives. What readers are saying... “It is interactive, user-friendly, astonishingly comprehensive, and it includes a treasure trove of user-friendly tools.” – Patrick C. Friman, Ph.D., ABPP Vice President of Behavioral Health, Boys Town; Clinical Professor of Pediatrics, UNMC “Anyone involved in teaching individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities should read this book and apply its content.” – Dennis H. Reid, Ph.D., BCBA-D Director of the Carolina Behavior Analysis and Support Center “... an indispensable resource for practitioners who strive to help learners gain more independence as they transition into early adulthood and beyond.”– Dorothea C. Lerman, Ph.D., BCBA-D, LABA-Tx Professor of Behavior Analysis, University of Houston-Clear Lake “... arguably one of the most comprehensive, well-written books on the topic of preparing individuals with autism/special needs for adulthood.” – Robert H. LaRue, Ph.D., BCBA-D Clinical Professor, Director of Behavioral Services, DDDC and RCAAS, Rutgers University “The authors have masterfully crafted a guide that not only outlines the unique needs of adults with ASD but also provides practical tools and strategies for addressing those needs.”– Ellie Kazemi, Ph.D., BCBA-D Professor, California State University, Northridge “What sets this book apart from so many other behavior analytic textbooks is its uncompromising emphasis on creating and implementing programs that are effective not only in the present but for the future..” – Amy Gravino, M.A., CAS Autism Sexuality Advocate and Relationship Coach, RCAAS, Rutgers University
