AAPD is proud to join this statement with leading autism orgs, calling for the government to make decisions based on quality science and compassion for the autism community. Autistic people deserve respect and support, not pseudoscience and stigma.

Hooray, #neurodiversity! New @NBCSNL cast member Chloe Troast giving an online tour of her dressing room:
“We got a ton of junk over here… all my crocheting. Need some noise-cancelling headphones - #neurodivergent queen! We got a bunch of Girl Scout cookies…”

BIG NEWS (and a huge weight of responsibility): I’m co-authoring ‘Neurodiversity for Dummies’ for Wiley Publishing.
This is meant as an easy-to-understand guide to neurodivergent conditions from an empowerment frame. Publishes in March 2024, but is available for preorder today.
Today, I was presenting online about #neurodiversity in the workplace when sensory issues started causing cognitive issues and my speech slowed (Hi! I’m #autisfic! 👋)
My #neurotypical colleague was able to present my slides until I could speak. That’s neurodiversity in action!
My friend Pedro (@Ped) texted me this. He’s a huge heavy metal fan and this text is one of the best texts that I’ve ever received from a neurotypical friend. ❤️😘♾️🎶

The @CDCgov revises autism rates in children age 8 from 1-in-44 to 1-in-36 (based on 2020 data).
Hooray for narrowing diagnostic gaps. Imagine if more people understood who they were at earlier ages.
