    "description": "<p>An autism spectrum disorder (ASD) opens permanent needs throughout the  entire life course in areas of care but also in terms of education and  employment. In a lifetime, there are several transition moments, such as  the step to primary or secondary school, the choice of another  discipline, the start of higher education or the first job. Transitions  are often very complicated for people with ASD. Therefore, perspective  thinking and early action are most important for the guidance of people  with ASD.</p><p>The AVANTI-project has developed a life-course model from a  proactive and holistic support vision. The model assumes that  transitions should be adequately prepared because this can be very  decisive for the success of a training or employment programme.  This book is aimed at the professional who works with people with ASD,  teachers, social workers, counsellors and job coaches.</p><p>This guide offers  them the theoretical framework of the life-course model and a  description of practical situations based on pilot projects in the  Netherlands, Flanders and Portugal.</p><p><strong>Kristien Sme</strong>t earned a graduate degree in Social-Agogic Work, with a  major in Social Work and a Master of Arts in Comparative European Social  Studies. She works as a social worker for Indigo vzw and as a project  assistant for GOB De Ploeg vzw.</p><p><strong>Suzanne van Driel</strong> is a staff member at the Dr. Leo Kannerhuis. She works  for the Research & Development Department.</p><p>This book is the result of a European cooperation in the context of the  Lifelong Learning Programme between De Ploeg vzw, specialized in the  training and guidance of employment-disabled people (BE) (supervisor),  the Dr. Leo Kannerhuis (NL), the Flemish Union of the Catholic Special  Needs Education (VVKBuO) (BE), APPACDM de Marinha Grande (PT) and the  Strategic Project Organization Kempen (SPK vzw) (BE).
