Social skills for adolescents and adults on the autistic spectrum

There is a really great guide on the National Autism Society website (UK) that helps adolescents and adults with autism develop their social interaction skills:

Information like this is really crucial as adolescents and adults rarely get the same access to services as children on the spectrum.  Once they leave school there is a black hole and services disapear, especially for those who are not intellectually impaired.
