Why Accommodations Matter
Accommodations aren't special treatment—they're tools that level the playing field. Just as a person with vision differences uses glasses, autistic people use accommodations to manage sensory, communication, and executive function differences.
Asking for accommodations can feel intimidating. Many autistic people struggle with knowing what to ask for, how to phrase it professionally, or worry about being seen as "too demanding." This tool aims to make the process easier.
Tips for Success
- Be specific. Vague requests are easier to deny. Concrete accommodations are easier to implement and evaluate.
- Focus on function. Frame accommodations in terms of what they enable you to do, not what you can't do without them.
- Document everything. Keep copies of your request and any responses. Follow up verbal conversations with written summaries.
- Start a conversation. The letter is a starting point. Be open to discussing alternatives that achieve the same goal.
- Know your rights. If accommodations are denied, you can request written explanation and explore appeals or complaints.
