Autism Centre For Supported Employment
People: Supporting young people to fulfil their potential
We'd like to support three more autistic adults into work placements with support from one of our specialist job coaches. This includes finding the placements and liaising with employers.
About this cause
We want to improve employment opportunities for autistic adults. Many find it tough to get that first opportunity in the world of work and we support the individual until they are ready to work more independently. Our office is a place where adults on the autism spectrum can get advice, help with their CV, job applications or just someone to listen to their worries and anxieties.
How this cause brings people in the community together
Autism remains a little-understood disability and autistic adults can find getting a job bewildering. Autism is massively under-represented in the employment market and employers often need support to raise their awareness of autism. We can support both parties to enable more autistic adults to enter the world of work with skilled support from our charity - it's a win-win solution.
