Social Isolation - More social service programs, private sector based, should provide day programs and exists. Getting out in the community, job development with support worker and general community integrations.

Autism is a wide spectrum of people with varying intellectual gifts to or / and intellectual difficulties. No one person with autism is the same of course but many could benfit from legistlated funded support programs. In California that's the Lanterman ACT but only for people with LFA to HFA and not A.S.
