The Limitations of Apps and Technology for Autism Support: Why Traditional Providers Like SLG’s ASD Waiver Services Are Essential in Connecticut

In an Increasingly Digital World, Are Apps Enough for Autism Support?

Technology has undeniably transformed the way we approach education, communication, and care for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Apps and digital resources promise convenience, accessibility, and innovative solutions for parents and caregivers. However, despite their potential, relying solely on technology can leave critical gaps in the quality of care and development for individuals with ASD.

At The Supported Living Group (SLG), we believe that while apps may complement certain aspects of care, they cannot replace the expertise, personalized attention, and hands-on approach of traditional support providers.
