I currently work in a post secondary transition program for students with Autism. Our class focuses on daily living and independence skills needed for competitive employment. I could see the Casey Life Assessment being used as a tool for students to become aware of their own strengths and areas of weakness. It is a two-year program and I would be interested in seeing the progression of results from year one to year two.
