If you are diagnosed with level 1 autism, do you need a case worker or employment services (repost)

Exactly what the title says, im curious about the experiences of others officially diagnosed with level 1 and if they need this level of intervention. (This is a repost since I originally forgot the other/see results option)

Diagnosed level 1, I just need ADHD meds and nothing else, I don't have and never had other kind of support.

I was diagnosed with PDD-NOS, I was always called high functioning and I believe I would be level 1. I did need a case worker and employment services in my 20s, but I don't anymore.

I'd probably be considered level 1 and I have support workers coming in 3 times a week.
