Autistic self-advocacy - How can SLPs support

What is it about?

A tutorial on how speech-language therapists/speech-language pathologists can support self-advocacy of autistic students. It contains strategies, sample scenarios, lesson plans and an informal assessment that SLPs/SLTs can use in their practice.

Why is it important?

There is very limited research on self-advocacy in the autistic population. Individuals on the autism spectrum want to be stronger self-advocates and clinical service providers want to learn how to promote or support self-advocacy. However, we do not have guidance on how to do this. So, a tutorial was created to help provide strategies for SLPs/SLTs.
