Product Description:

During the transition to adulthood, effective and culturally relevant supports are critical for families of youth with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). There is a dearth of documented program development and research on supports for Spanish‐speaking Latino families during this life stage. The present work describes the cultural adaptation process of an evidence‐based transition program for Latino families of youth with ASD.
