Autism Speaks - Life Skills for Autism

A compilation of strategies and ideas to understand and teach life skills in order to support increased independence at home, school, and in the community.

Autism Speaks has created a resource for caregivers providing an overview of the definition of life skills, strategies for teaching life skills, and a list of 10 ways to build a child's independence.

As described by Autism Speaks, "learning life skills is essential to increase independence at home, at school and in the community. By introducing these skills early and building block by block, people with autism gain the tools that will allow him or her to increase self esteem and lead to more happiness in all areas of life." (Autism Speaks, 2025)
