These resources are an easy, impactful way to experience our approach and begin learning more about how to become autism inclusive.

While some resources are free to everyone, our complete library is available in our Employer Toolkit, accessible through our membership plans.

Visual Schedule Example

A visual schedule is a tool that uses pictures, symbols, or written words to outline the sequence of activities or tasks throughout a day or within a specific routine. It helps individuals understand what to expect, reduces anxiety, and supports independent task completion by providing clear, concrete cues. These can be used by any employee, with or without autism. 

Task Analysis Example

A task analysis is a breakdown of a complex activity into smaller, manageable steps. It’s used to teach or support someone in completing a task by providing a clear, sequential process. This is especially helpful for individuals who benefit from structure, repetition, or visual/auditory cues. 

Social Stories

 A social story is a short, personalized narrative designed to help individuals with autism understand social situations, expectations, or behaviors. Written in clear, reassuring language (often with visuals), social stories teach appropriate responses and reduce anxiety by preparing the person for what to expect.
