This is a very real issue, for lots of Spectrumite..unfortunately ..There is a very real profound need for places like this.
And it would require serious dedication. What will happen to any aspie as they age. It seems society is ignoring the need to invest in such places as this. As long as they practice humane care of those less fortunate.!
