250 Tips that Cover Autism's 20 Biggest Challenges!250 Lifehacks for Young Autistic Adults: Your Guide to a Simpler Life covers—with humor and sensitivity—the twenty biggest challenges for people with autism. Written in collaboration with autistic individuals, it illustrates what autistics can do themselves to tackle these challenges, and also how others can help. Though the book is primarily written for adults with autism, it is also an excellent guide for their friends, neighbors, partners, parents and employers. By reading about the challenges and the accompanying tips, people without autism can also gain a better insight into what autistics struggle with, where these challenges come from, and how they can help and support them.As mentioned, the selection of the twenty challenges and all tips in this book are the result of meetings of people with autism, more specifically ambassadors of “Strengthmakers in Autism.” This is an organization that strives for full inclusion of autistic individuals. At the back of the book the ambassadors introduce themselves.Topics include:Setting boundaries and daring to say noPlanning and organizingMaking choices and decisionsDealing with unpredictable eventsAnd much more!

"This is definitely a worthwhile read for those of us on the spectrum. Not everything will work for everyone, but I think there's something for everyone in here." — Amber McLain, Librarian"This is a very clear, well-written set of life hacks to help young autistic adults with life challenges. It demystifies common issues like dealing with sensory overload, handling other people's emotions, making conversation, building close relationships, etc. One aspect I really liked is that for every challenge, there are suggestions for what one can do for oneself and what one can ask others to do (because that's not always obvious!). And pictures!" — Victoria Huhn, Educator
