Project Description:
The UW Adult Autism Clinic operated by UW Medicine (UWMAAC) is designed to meet the complex needs of individuals over 18 years of age with autism spectrum and related disorders. Launched in 2012, UWMAAC has served thousands of adults and their families in accessing scarce adult medical and behavioral health resources while also providing opportunities for trainees to better understand the needs of autistic adults and adults with IDD. The providers at the Adult Autism Clinic assess the various needs of patients and families and customize care management approaches to assure the best possible patient experience. The clinic provides autism spectrum screening evaluations and behavioral medicine services, including medication management, mental health assessments, and adult transition services, all in an effort to maximize quality of life through the lifespan. In April 2021, the clinic will be moving to the Center on Human Development and Disability (CHDD). This relocation will allow for more collaborative work with existing CHDD clinics, other UCEDD programs such as the Clinical Training Unit, growth in services such as social work and behavioral health, and opportunities for even more community outreach and healthcare provider training and education.
