The holiday season is often considered a time of joy and togetherness, but for families supporting adults on the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), it can also present unique challenges. Changes in routine, crowded environments, and the pressure to celebrate in traditional ways can be overwhelming for individuals on the spectrum. However, with thoughtful planning and support, the holidays can become a time of connection, growth, and meaningful experiences.

For individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and their families, navigating support options can often feel overwhelming. Fortunately, Connecticut’s ASD Waiver program provides critical resources to help adults with ASD (aged 18 and over) achieve their goals and thrive in their communities. At The Supported Living Group (SLG), we specialize in delivering comprehensive, personalized ASD Waiver services, empowering individuals to overcome challenges and build meaningful, independent lives.

In this guide, we’ll explain what the Connecticut ASD Waiver program offers, who is eligible, and how to apply for these essential services.
