We will review the development, evaluation, and refinement of the Surviving and Thriving in the Real World (STRW) intervention that targets age-appropriate daily living skills in autistic adolescents. Finally, we will discuss how to assess and then develop a treatment plan for building daily living skills in autistic children, adolescents, and young adults.
