Abstract

Abstract Employment is a valued transition outcome for many individuals with autism who use augmentative and alternative communication (AAC). As for anyone, a successful employment experience will require careful planning during the school years and the provision of appropriate supports in the workplace. Consideration of the individual's skills, preferences, and needed supports will play a critical role in ensuring positive workplace participation. This article will describe key strategies for supporting positive outcomes for individuals with autism who use AAC and illustrate these approaches with case examples.
