Joint Oireachtas Committee on Autism
Autism Policy and Employment: Discussion
Mr. Peter Brabazon:
In general, no. With regard to developments in the employment area, we had to take the low-hanging fruit in terms of the type of skills that were required. What we are now trying to do, in particular when working with communities, is to actually go into that area. My own son would work with applied behaviour analysis, ABA, with cards and all of that type of thing, but I have moved on from that as my son is now 29. I am not familiar with RPM, despite having been involved with a number of charities and having been chairman of another charity when my son was young. It may be that it is just a scheme. Perhaps Ms Murphy has heard of it.
