Autistic adults

Autistic adults are individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), a neurodevelopmental condition that affects how they perceive, communicate, and interact with the world. They may experience differences in social communication, sensory sensitivities, and repetitive behaviors. These characteristics vary widely among individuals, with some leading highly independent lives and others needing more support. Autistic adults often bring unique perspectives and skills, contributing positively to their communities. Understanding and accommodation support their well-being, allowing them to thrive and participate fully in society.
