Autism NI USING STRUCTURE‼
We understand that having a daily structure is important for the autism community. Whether it be for a young autistic person trying to adapt to completing school work, or an autistic adult adapting to a new work and social routine, this can be really challenging. We have created a guide to using a structured approach, including timers and to-do lists to support autistic individuals.
