Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects social interaction, communication, and behavior, but it is not synonymous with mental challenge or intellectual disability. Many individuals with autism have average or above-average intelligence and unique strengths. However, some may also have co-occurring intellectual disabilities. It's important to recognize that autism exists on a spectrum, and each individual has their own capabilities and challenges.
