A lot of the time, paths to poverty reduction for autistic adults are the responsibility of the government, organizations, and non-autistic people who can do their part in filling support gaps. 💗
At AutismBC, we can provide resources on financial literacy, interviewing, and more to help autistic adults empower themselves with information, but many of the underlying issues keeping us impoverished are systemic and intersectional.
Complex problems require complex solutions, but we believe #equityisworthwhile regardless of the effort it takes to create a brighter future. 🌟
This video covers some of the suggestions made by autistic adults experiencing financial hardship in BC. It’s well-supported by some staggering statistics from our recent survey, which found many autistic adults who responded don’t make enough to comfortably support themselves.
