Along with coauthor Amy Bixler, Jill Hudson has developed another of her trademark short, to-the-point resources that will be used again and again by parents and educators. This time the focus is on ?the every day,? how to enable and support individuals on the autism spectrum in participating, to the maximum extent, in the community around them.In this simple book, the authors provide a framework for identifying the areas where an individual with ASD may need support to participate more fully and successfully in community outings.The framework, created as a Blueprint to be filled in depending on the child and the outing being planned, lists 10 areas identified in best practice as effective types of support for children with ASD, including waiting plan, communication, social, visual, hidden curriculum, sensory, motivation, behavior, transition, and siblings or other students.The Blueprint has been created so that anyone may complete it by filling in the tools with the support that best matches the child for the event. The hope is that the specially designed Blueprint will become second nature to its users as they become more familiar with the areas of support the child needs in various situations.
