Background
This webinar will give you an insight into the types of support available to neurodiverse adults.
David Perkins is the founder of AS Mentoring, a service whose main focus is Autism Spectrum (ASC) but 40% of their clients also have ADHD. ASC and ADHD present many overlapping employment challenges, about which David has extensive knowledge.
AS Mentoring offers:
- Pre-employment support (including job searching)
- Workplace support
- Mentoring
- Workshops
- Neurodiversity awareness training
Due to recent high demand, AS Mentoring may be operating a waiting list for new referrals; however other organisations also provide similar services.
