Conditions studied: Accommodation, Daily Activities, Independence, Autism

In brief

This project aims to develop and test the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary impact of a brief, online single-session intervention (SSI) for caregivers of autistic youth ages 10 to 14. The SSI, called Project Independence, is designed to give caregivers practical tools to support greater independence in daily living routines. To test the SSI, participants will be randomly assigned to either complete Project Independence or watch a time-matched, series of educational video with unrelated content.
