    Options for English speaking teenagers / young adults with Autism

    Looking into for post-school options for teens or young English speaking adults with Autism.
    Searching the web there are plenty of options for little or school age children and also some options for vocational education for Cantonese speaking adults. What about those who don't speak the language? What about supported employment, supported housing? Anyone familiar? Thanks!

    Consult an educational psychologist for your individual needs. See www.omg-centre.com. I know most are Chinese speaking resources. PM me as needed.

    Autistic individuals may display special talents (hyperfocus) and given certain kind of schooling/training it may lead to a brilliant career! Consult an educational psychologist.

    Two out of three are not very bilingual.
