🎓✨ Calling All Parents & Autistic Teens! ✨🎓

We invite YOU to take part in an exciting research study led by a high school student in a science research program in collaboration with a University of Florida professor! 🧪📚🐊

🧠 What’s the study about?
We're exploring how parents and autistic adolescents may view the college transition process differently. Your input will help improve college accommodations and supports for autistic students. 🙌

📝 What will you do?
Just complete a short, anonymous survey about how you (or your child) feel about the transition to college. That’s it! ✅

🔒 Your privacy matters:
No names or identifiable information will be collected — all responses are anonymous. 🔐

💡 Why it matters:
Your voice can help shape better, more inclusive college experiences for autistic students! 🏫💙

👉 Take the survey here before September 2nd: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe_cfj0P21erixptmRAHQq9c3F9Re_ZGzgo-NZkDlYRT2Z-hg/viewform?usp=dialog
