About
The purpose of ISAW is to support Business Service Teams in their understanding of issues relevant to autism and employment. Through in-person trainings, online modules, and ongoing supports, we hope to increase employment for workers on the autism spectrum.

The work is being overseen by a subcommittee of the Kentucky Advisory Council on Autism.
