Welcome! We’re so glad you’ve found your way here.
This is a supportive space dedicated to understanding and celebrating the experiences of women on the autism spectrum. Often, the autistic experience in women can be different from the traditional understanding of autism, leading to late diagnoses, feelings of isolation, and unique challenges.
Here, you’ll find a community where you can connect with others who understand, share your experiences, and feel truly seen. We aim to:
- Illuminate the unique presentations of autism in women: We’ll explore the nuances, masking behaviors, and internal experiences that are often characteristic of autistic women.
- Provide a comprehensive hub of resources: From diagnostic information and self-assessment tools to practical strategies for navigating daily life, work, and relationships, we’re gathering valuable resources to empower you.
- Foster a strong and supportive community: Connect with other autistic women through forums, shared stories, and information about support groups. You are not alone.
- Offer guidance and information on seeking support: We’ll provide pathways to finding professionals who understand autism in women, as well as strategies for self-advocacy.
Whether you are seeking a diagnosis, are newly diagnosed, or have known you are autistic for years, you are welcome here. This is a place to learn, grow, and connect.
Take a look around, explore the resources, and feel free to become a part of our growing community. We’re here to support you on your journey.
