About Love & Autism
Love & Autism is not just a name; it’s a profound statement that embodies our commitment to dismantling systemic ableism. Let’s create an autistic affirming world. You & Me.
Love & Autism is a non-profit organization that shifts the hopeless narrative associated with autism and helps bring about global change in how autistic people are treated at work, home, academic setting, and community.
Love & Autism 2026
“The truth is, we’re still asking autistic people to not be autistic. The demands to act non-autistic, to mask autistic traits, lead to depression, anxiety, and behaviors consistent with aggression. Dismantling ableism can only occur if we are willing to internally reflect and shift.”
-Jenny P.
