This section offers information about ways in which communication and social skills can be developed.

Sex education and children and young people with an ASD: Information and advice about how to broach the subjects of puberty, sex and relationships with a child or young person with an autistic spectrum disorder (ASD).
Social isolation: People on the autism spectrum can experience social isolation. We'll look at the possible reasons for this, and ways in which people, their family, friends and carers can improve matters.
