This June, Autism Speaks hosted a virtual Thought Leadership Summit on Autism & Aging bringing together families, self-advocates, researchers and policymakers to discuss the issues facing autistic adults as they age. Over two days of sessions, presenters shared the top challenges faced by aging autistic adults, discussed policy considerations, provided an overview of the existing research and identified opportunities for further action to support this community.
