teenager with AS in the best possible ways. The presenters will focus on a range of areas known
to be important to both boys and girls with Asperger’s Syndrome including the transition into high

school, the learning profile of the person with AS/ASC and specific strategies to encourage
learning success, the management of anxiety, stress, anger and depression, friendships,
relationships and sexuality, what to do about bullying, and transition into a career.
