"Just because someone is diagnosed—newly or otherwise—does not mean that they will know what support they will need. I am someone who had support in school and university. Translating that experience into what I needed in employment was tricky. It is the same for other autistic people."

Most of the services available for older people are not appropriate for autistic people, or they are not designed with them in mind.
So autistic elders of different genders and ethnicities have been included to create content, training and post-training Refreshers
