Welcome to ASD Nest

Sharing knowledge and resources on Autism Spectrum Diagnosis (ASD) to families through a strengths-based approach and neurodiversity affirming lens.

Our Approach

In many cultures, Autism is often misunderstood or seen as taboo, which can lead to the harmful perception that something is “wrong” with Autistic individuals. We reject that idea. Autistic people experience and engage with the world in beautifully unique ways and have so much to contribute.

Our goal is not to change or “fix” Autistic individuals, but to support families in embracing and empowering their children. Our hope is to share knowledge, celebrate neurodiversity, and help families access the accommodations and supports that allow their children to thrive as their authentic selves.
