In this Autism Infocast, we explore autism as a lifelong neurodevelopmental condition, affecting how people perceive, communicate, and interact. You'll learn why it’s not an illness, but a diverse spectrum of experiences, strengths, and challenges, helping to dispel common misconceptions. We cover core characteristics like social communication differences and sensory experiences, giving you a clearer picture of how autistic people navigate the world. We'll help you to understand the vital concept of neurodiversity, highlighting the unique talents and perspectives that autistic thinking brings. This will foster a more informed and respectful understanding of autism and the language we use.Support the showGet more practical advice, ideas, and knowledge...To browse hundreds of insightful articles, videos, podcasts, books, resources, and courses about Autism and Neurodiversity, all made to help both autistic and non-autistic people alike, visit these links: Read articles on autism and neurodiversity Watch videos to teach yourself and find inspiration Listen to podcasts to learn all about autism Explore books on autism, neurodiversity, and care Explore a packed library of autism resources and helpful tools Book a 1 or 2 hour training course for you, your group, or your organisation Search the Autism Info Center for ideas, advice and learning materials Create a free Autism Hospital Passport to make medical care easier!
