Social scripts for autism

A social script is a document that uses storytelling techniques to explain new experiences and environments to Autistic people through simple language and images.

A social script will usually include very specific and illustrated information about what an Autistic person can expect when visiting a place or event – such as how they’ll travel to a place, what it will look like, who will engage with them, what activities will occur, and what they can do if they feel overwhelmed.
