Making Space for Autism: Strategies for Assessing and Modifying Environments to Meet the Needs of Autistic People
This accessible, strengths-focused approach to supporting autistic people across different areas of their life reflects a paradigm shift from one where autism is treated as a deficit or impairment to one of positivity, acceptance and autonomy. Historically, there has been an expectation that autistic children and adults should conform their behaviour to social norms, with strategies and interventions centred around navigating spaces and situations with minimal damage. This person-centred environmental assessment and modification programme moves away from this, instead providing information and tools for assessing and reflecting on features of the autistic person's environment to best support their comfort, autonomy and agency.
