Volunteers Needed for "Examining the Transition" Study

The University of Calgary's, Faculty of Social Work in Edmonton is currently looking for individuals to take part in a study called Examining the Transition from Child to Adult Services for Persons with Autism. They study team is hoping to identify experiences and needs related to the transition from adolescent to adult services and resources for individuals (16-25 years of age) with autism and their families.

Participation in this study involves an interview with the parent(s) and the individual with autism, if possible (can be either together or separate). The interview will take place at a time and place convenient for you. The interview will allow you to share your experiences and ideas about what is beneficial and what changes should be made to improve care for families affected by autism.

Feel free to call or email the study team for more information, or if you're interested in participating in the study. Contact information is included below. The study team is happy to answer any questions you might have about the study. You do not have to participate if you contact us for more information.
