Ahead of our collective action on July 19th, I am asking UK people to sign this form to create a list of people who support the findings of the CAMHS reports I wrote.

Sign here- https://forms.gle/xn3sk4VZh4ruT3ck7

If you're on Android and want an app full of stuff about autism and neurodiversity, I just release a free app called "Neurodiversity 101". It will also be coming to iOS in the future.

Download it here-

The following is a survey asking for the language preferences of Autistic and non-Autistic people regarding autism.

It is open to Autistic and non-Autistic people for the benefit of comparison.

I will also be using the preference results of Autistic people on the "neurodiversity: the basics" page of my website.

Please do fill this out and RT it, I would like to get at least 1000 responses.

Survey-

Please stop with the euphemisms. We know what we are, we don't need it explained to us. It is patronising when people try and define our identity for us.
