Aspire Asks Five Questions About Autism

MGH Aspire offers fall, spring and summer programs to help children, teens, and adults with high cognitive autism spectrum disorder or a related social profile make social connections and develop independence. Our participants learn the skills they need to achieve their full potential at home, school, work, and in their communities. It was a privilege to be able to share the perspectives of some of our participants here at Aspire. Their answers to “Five Questions about Autism” will enlighten you. Produced by Atlantic Public Media (www.atlantic.org) for Massachusetts General Hospital's Aspire program. Animation by Hannah Jacobs. Music by Stellwagen Symphonette and Podington Bear.
