Originally aired at Reframing Autism’s 2021 Symposium on Autistic Flourishing: Acceptance, Authenticity, Autonomy, Australian-based Autism and neurodiversity support specialist Kristy Forbes’ presentation, Flourishing with Acceptance, explores some of the key concepts around Autism acceptance, including damaging narratives, supporting the individual, Autistic culture and lifestyle, Autistic identity and challenging internalised ableism. Kristy’s work is informed by her extensive professional experience as an educator, as an integration aide to children with social, emotional and behavioural challenges, and as a childhood behavioural and family specialist. Her most valuable insights, however, come from lived experience as an Autistic individual. The presentation is essential viewing for Autistic individuals, parents of Autistic children and professionals who work with Autistic people.
