Feeling lost in the complex world of autism terminology and support?

The autism community is incredibly diverse, yet often misunderstood. This episode addresses the confusion surrounding labels, the challenges faced by individuals with varying support needs, and the crucial need for greater understanding and acceptance.   

 Learn how to:

  • Navigate the complexities of autism terminology and advocate for respectful, specific language.
  • Recognize and address sensory issues, a key aspect of autism, and understand the importance of tailored accommodations.   
  • Understand the importance of creating supportive systems and resources, especially for those with low support needs, and address the challenges of bullying and negativity faced by the community.

 Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of neurodiversity, learn practical strategies for support, and discover how to foster a more inclusive and compassionate environment for individuals with autism.
