A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

Researchers will adapt KF-STRIDE 2.0 for adults with autism by partnering with the autism community to gather feedback. They will use mixed methods to refine the program and then test acceptability, feasibility, fidelity, and initial efficacy in adults on the spectrum. The goal is to provide a foundation for a future larger randomized trial and to support employment outcomes. The study is conducted at the Kessler Foundation in East Hanover, NJ, with US participants who are English-speaking and reach a basic reading level.
