In August of 2017, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) released the 2017 Report to Congress: Young Adults and Transitioning Youth with Autism Spectrum Disorder, which found that there is a critical need for research and better coordinated services targeted to youth with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who are transitioning to adulthood.  ITAC staff developed a brief summary of the HHS report that pulled out items relevant to the LEND and DBP training programs.  This document offers a number of direct links to datasets, analyses, and other source material used in the full report that may be relevant to programs seeking additional information on transition activities across the federal government.
