In this paper, we highlight the idea that the intervention on people with ASD should always be based on a comprehensive and forward-looking approach, consolidating networks of services that cover all the vital needs, rights, areas and the life stages, with the aim to enhance the maintenance and the continued development of both basic skills of daily living and all those skills that help them to access to the same areas as the general population, following the model of quality of life to ensure their Life Project against welfare conceptions addressed to prevent deterioration only. We present the principles on which this intervention must be based, and gather the main intervention programs aimed at training, employment and working in adulthood.
