Resource Hubs 
          

Neuroclastic

NeuroClastic is a great resource. It’s made for Autistic folks by Autistic folks!

There are many different perspectives on there and lots of resources.
The 101 article is very useful.

This article also explains how the spectrum is not a linear phenomena.

Neurodivergent love languages.
The article Very Grand Emotions is one that I continually point people toward.
Terra Vance created a Guide that is incredibly useful when introducing folks to the concept / experience of Autism.

​

Autastic

Autastic is another resource hub. They have resources like ASD friendly podcasts, tips on what to put in your sensory kit and a few ideas on how to help you sleep. The website is overwhelmingly white for some reason, which I find personally overwhelming, however it's not as text based which might be easier to navigate if you are more visual.

Below are a few Possibility Models. I also created a Possibility Models page in order to highlight folks with different intersections of identity.
