      ab: Purpose: In this article we describe a comprehensive initiative for preparing adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) for successful transitions into adulthood. We present a framework for teaching and shaping social communication behaviors for bridging potential gaps in the progression from high school into postsecondary education, the workforce, and independent living. Background: In our program, Information and Communication Readiness for All Transition Experiences (ICREATE), we integrate six fundamental components to build social communication behaviors for effective transitions into new experiences. Outcomes: Participants in ICREATE demonstrate improvements in social communication behaviors, including self-awareness, social reciprocity, and self-advocacy behaviors. Throughout the program, participants apply and generalize their learned social communication behaviors to a variety of contexts. Implications: The ICREATE program has significant implications for adolescents with ASD, their families, and their communities. The information we provide serves as an outline that can be modified and adapted for a variety of settings and populations.
