[Image Credit: Pixabay.com](Image Credit: Pixabay.com)  \nMoney Management for Young Adults with Autism  \nAutism at-a-Glance is a series of practitioner and familyfriendly documents created by the Center on Secondary Education for Students with ASD (CSESA) designed for highschool staff members supporting students on the autism spectrum, as well as family members of adolescents with ASD. The purpose of the Autism at-aGlance series is to provide a current summary of topics relevant to adolescents and young adults with ASD as well as practical tips and resources for school and community personnel and family members.  \nThis Autism at-a-Glance was designed to support practitioners and family members in developing and promoting money management skills for young adults on the autism spectrum.  \nL  \nike many young adults transitioning into the next phase of their life, young adults with autism desire increased independence and autonomy and want to feel confident in their ability to  \nsucceed. However, young adults with autism are often less financially independent compared to other youth, including other peers with special health care needs (Friedman, Warfield, & Parish, 2013; Hume, Boyd, Hamm, & Kucharczyk, 2014).  \nAlthough youth with autism have identified finance management as a marker of independence, they also worry about their lack of education and experience in money management. They see this as a barrier to gaining independence (Cheak-Zamora, Teti, Peters, & Maurer-Batjer, 2017). Financial literacy is often not taught in high schools, with only 21 US states requiring students to take a course that integrates personal finance (Council for Economic Education, 2020). This results in many young adults having limited knowledge of money management. Transition services for high school students with ASD often lack a personal finance component as  \nwell.  \n[Image Credit: Pixabay.com](Image Credit: Pixabay.com)  \nMoney  \nManagement  \n[Image Credit: Pixabay.com](Image Credit: Pixabay.com)  \nImportance of Money Management  \nMoney management plays an important role in developing independence in young adults with ASD, and this increased independence is recognized as a predictor of future success in post-secondary education and in the adult workforce (Berry, Ward & Kaplan, 2012; Doren et al., 2012) . Research also suggests that the ability to manage personal finances in adolescents with disabilities not only has the potential to increase independence, but also improve mental well-being and future income (Taylor, Jenkins, & Sacker, 2011) .  \nSetting up a Bank Account  \nResearch on postsecondary life in young adults with ASD revealed that few actually have their own bank account (Wagner et al. 2005) . New experiences like setting up a bank account can be intimidating for many people, and this anxiety can be increased in some individuals with ASD who may have difficulty adjusting to new social settings.  \nBring someone along!  \nOne way to make the process of setting up a bank account more comfortable is to have a close friend or relative accompany the young adult to the bank. Someone who has been through the experience before can help explain things that may be unclear, offer advice about the many options, provide prompts for questions to ask, and provide moral support to make it a more enjoyable experience.  \nSeek Out ASD-friendly Banks  \nWith public education about ASDon the rise, some banks have started creating ASD friendly spaces and processes within their institutions. An example is Regions  \nBank, which implements strategies  \nlike specifically educating employees about ASD and training them on how to appropriately communicate with all clients. The bank has also established quiet areas and gives out sensory packs that include stress balls, earplugs, and sunglasses for those with ASD who may b","cbCaij7SedMHarUs","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaij7SedMHarUs","pdf",679933,"English","# Money Management for Young Adults with Autism\n## Importance of Money Management\n## Setting up a Bank Account\n## Bring someone along!\n## Seek Out ASD-friendly Banks\n## Online Banking\n## Budgeting\n## Utilize Visual Aids for Budgeting","[{\"question\":\"Why is money management important for young adults with ASD?\",\"answer\":\"Money management helps build independence, supports future success in post-secondary education and work, and can improve mental well-being and future income for adolescents with disabilities.\"},{\"question\":\"How can someone make setting up a bank account easier?\",\"answer\":\"Bring a close friend or relative along to explain unclear steps, offer advice on options, prompt questions, and provide moral support during the process.\"},{\"question\":\"What options help when nearby banks are not ASD-friendly or transportation is a barrier?\",\"answer\":\"Online banking can be used to set up and manage checking and savings accounts, reducing some social impacts of in-person banking.\"}]","Autism at-a-Glance - Money Management for Young Adults with Autism | PDF",1792044277,15]
