Inclusion, or the integration of people with and without disabilities, is supported by legislation of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). A key component of IDEA addresses the need for individuals to receive services in the least restrictive setting or environment. Physical activity and recreation programs should be naturally inclusive environments for individuals with autism. To ensure a safe and successful program, staff need to be knowledgeable on the considerations of autism, and sufficiently trained on working and interacting with individuals with autism.
