The Transitioning to Employment (TTE) project was funded by the MN Department of Human Services (MN DHS) grant through their Disability Services Division. During the development phase, the research team formed an advisory group of 12-15 stakeholders from the autism community in order to gather feedback on the program design, implementation, and recruitment strategies. Advisory group members included adolescents and young adults with autism, parents of adolescents and young adults with ASD, service providers who provide employment supports to adolescents and young adults with ASD, and professionals from autism advocacy organizations.
