The research project Autistic Role Models studies the quality of life of individuals on the autism spectrum. It investigates how autistic role models can improve the chances of people on the spectrum to lead fulfilling lives. This is done by portraying snippets of autistic lives in which the model found alternative but successful solutions to the difficulties commonly encountered by members of the autistic community.
