Popis: Until the early of nineties there was no supporting system for autistic children, youths and adults in Poland; there was no diagnostic and counselling centers, educational institutions and parents’ supporting. Thanks to the desperation and efforts of parents and professionals social and educational support service for children and youths was constituted and now the beneficiaries of it have already faced adulthood and experiences connected with this period of life. Therefore a new challenges and questions arise: where and how to support adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders? What is the way adult autistic people function and why it is so difficult for them to function within institutions for people with intellectual disabilities? Does supporting system for people with intellectual disabilities satisfy needs of adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders? Should separate facility for people with autism be constituted or should one follow and search for the opportunities in the existing network of support? In the text the authors analyze the existing support system for adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders, seek answers to these questions and thereby outline the current situation of adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders living in Poland.
