The Autism Waitlist currently provides resources, tools and training to parents who are on an autism waitlist. The Autism Waitlist Research Assistant will engage in research and writing tasks in their areas of interests in relation to the parents needing support.

• Academic Writing (Including writing of chapters, books or articles targeting an academic population)
• Content and/or Literature Review (Including identifying key and/or summarizing key academic papers, or finding content for programs/websites/apps)
• Other related tasks

• Content & Literature Review in areas related to support, training and strategies for parents of autistic children
• Academic writing from interviews and events hosted by Autism Waitlist (summit interviews etc)

I will be delighted to work with an intern to complete their internship hours. The student will have the opportunity to develop their research skills and learn more about a topic of interest in the area of autism and supporting parents. In addition they will develop their writing skills which will support them in their future career.

Specific supports can be determined with the professor to ensure students meet their requirements & complete the internship tasks. This may include but is not limited to:

* Meetings with student - to set & review goals and monitor project progress

* Provision of co-working tools

Other supports to be determined with professor as required.
