Summary

This study tests a telehealth program called STRW-T that teaches daily living skills like laundry, cooking, and money management to autistic adolescents in their last two years of high school. The program involves 15 weekly group and one-on-one sessions via Zoom. Researchers will compare it to a social skills program to see which better improves independence.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Surviving and Thriving in the Real World - Telehealth (STRW-T) behavioral intervention
What this could lead to: If successful, this could provide an effective telehealth program to help autistic teens gain independence in daily tasks like cooking and money management.
What could go wrong: This is a relatively small, early-stage trial comparing two behavioral interventions, so results may not be definitive or generalizable to all autistic teens.
