We welcomed Betty Hallenbeck, the second of our speakers from Asperger/Autism Network (AANE) in Boston, Mass. https://www.aane.org/

Betty spoke to us about AANE’s  programs designed to support individuals with Asperger profiles in becoming independent adults.

LifeNet is a private pay, independent living support program for adults with Asperger’s or similar autism spectrum profiles. LifeNet offers peace of mind that an adult on the spectrum will be supported as they navigate adulthood.

LifeMAP (Life Management Assistance Program) is an intensive, practical, highly individualized life coaching program, staffed by trained professionals for individuals with Asperger profiles.  Coaches help clients use their strengths to identify and overcome the particular barriers they face. The ultimate goal of LifeMAP is for clients to improve their quality of life, increase their independence, and progress toward reaching their full potential.
