This fall, OAR set a goal of distributing 10,000 print and digital copies of our information resources through our Higher Education on the Spectrum campaign aimed at reaching autistic college students, professors, university staff, and parents. We surpassed this goal by the end of the campaign, distributing a total of 13,821 resources related to academics, employment, sex education, mental health, and safety to support autistic young adults.
Although the fall campaign has ended, we encourage you to continue exploring OAR’s resources. Whether you are an autistic student looking to make the transition to college or a parent/staff member looking for ways to support an autistic young adult, check out these helpful resources:
