When profoundly autistic individuals age out of the school system at 22, many families are left without support or options. In this episode of Autism Labs, Mike Carr shares how he and his wife faced this challenge with their nonverbal son, who has seizures and aggressive behaviors. After being told their son was "unemployable" and turned away by programs, they created J13—a program for adults with severe autism and complex needs. J13 offers structured outings, peer connections, and trained staff who manage behaviors without exclusion. The result: reduced aggression, increased social engagement, and even part-time jobs. For many families, J13 offers hope and a future once thought out of reach.
