Autism Spectrum Australia (Aspect) is seeking to investigate, the life experiences, aspirations and support needs of adults (aged 18 and over) with Asperger’s Syndrome (AS) and high functioning autism (HFA). We intend to use the findings of this research to raise awareness and present information to governments and service providers that will enable them to better understand and respond to the needs of this client group.
Data will be collected in three ways:
1) From adults with AS and HFA, via a questionnaire (available online or as a paper document).
2) From parents of adults with AS and HFA, via a questionnaire (available online or as a paper document).
3) From service providers across a range of sectors (e.g. health, higher education, employment), via telephone interviews.
If you would like to be involved, there are two ways:
1. Complete the questionnaire by following the link at the top of the Aspect home page: www.autismspectrum.org.au, OR
2. Contact Susanna Baldwin on sbaldwin@autismspectrum.org.au or (02) 8868 8510 for more information.
