PASSAGE Program Training & Education

The PASSAGE Program's education arm is focused on providing relevant resources to the community through trainings and programming for autistic youth, their families, and the professionals who work with them.

CAR's Next Steps Series

CAR's Next Steps series offers a Next Steps into Adulthood workshop for individuals with autism, their families, and support professionals. Individuals with autism and those who support them face decisions and logistical planning that affect every aspect of life: healthcare, domestic life, finances, relationships, education, and employment or alternative activities in the community. This workshop explores these topics in facilitated small groups, including one exclusively for autistic self-advocates.

CAR Autism Roadmap™

The CAR Autism Roadmap™ has informative articles and a resource directory with topics covering the lifespan. Plans are underway to build a Road to Adulthood within this resource to facilitate access to adult topics.

Training for Professionals

Training for professionals is necessary to ensure there are adult providers who are capable and interested in working with autistic adults. The PASSAGE Program is working to expand professional expertise within a variety of disciplines, including providing training for psychiatry fellows and offering a rotation for autism psychology interns. Interested persons should contact the PASSAGE Program for more information.
