And a program (the one I work in), of clients who are basically fully functioning but still may have maladaptive social behaviors, which might look strange or weird to people who are neurotypical.

We work with these folks trying to integrate them into the working world, finding them job placements and also helping them be able to do things of daily living. (Dressing, cooking, shopping, money management, etc)

We use Applied Behavior Analysis to help them achieve their goals.

The world needs more people like you ,thanks .
