| dc.description.abstract | While developmentally appropriate services are often prioritized for children, there is a significant gap in understanding how the specific needs of autistic adults are addressed within oncology care. The McMaster Research Shop partnered with the Youth Alliance for Intersectional Justice (YAIJ) to explore services available for autistic adults during their cancer journeys. People with autism face unique challenges when interacting with the healthcare system. Cancer care is an important area of concern as research shows that individuals with autism are at higher risk for health problems, including cancer. As the autistic population continues to grow, it is crucial for healthcare systems to adapt and ensure that oncology services are inclusive and responsive to their unique needs. | en_US |
