The Bridge Back to School learning resource has been developed to help those with high support needs prepare during the summer months to return to school in September.
Around 20,000 of the booklets will be distributed to SuperValu stores nationwide and be available to pick up from 6 July in every store at identifiable points. The resource can also be accessed online from the SuperValu website.
AsIAm worked with professor Emer Ring of Mary Immaculate College who has extensive experience in education to develop the resource.
Martin Kelleher, managing director at SuperValu, said: “We are proud of the work we are doing to raise awareness of autism in all SuperValu communities around the country. SuperValu and AsIAm are committed to the journey of making our communities more autism-friendly and inclusive of all members.”
He added: “SuperValu recognises the challenges for families as they prepare for the return to school and hope that this useful and practical learning resource will be an essential support for them over the coming months.”
