Mental health resources for autistic teens

I’m looking for some resources for an autistic 14yo who is struggling with impulsivity, outburst and aggression at school. He’s already in therapy and taking meds for his ADHD but unfortunately his behavior is escalating. We have been to children’s and Roger’s so far and their response was that this is normal for autistic teens and to let him continue his normal therapy

I’m at a loss here can anyone please recommend us anything at all? Any experiences? Any places to avoid? TIA!!

Edit: I’m looking for a day program type of situation if possible
