Job Purpose: I am a 17-year-old boy with a diagnosis of Autism and severe learning disability who is looking for a Personal Assistant to support me with various activities in the community. Sometimes I am not able to process information, so I need someone who would check with me and ensure I understand what is being communicated to me.
