Neurodivergent adults — ASAN's resource library

The Autistic Self Advocacy Network on autism, ADHD, and the broader neurodiversity movement, written by neurodivergent adults themselves.

Autistic Self Advocacy Network8 min read

ASAN is the major U.S. self-advocacy organization run by and for autistic people. Their resource library covers everything from plain-language policy explainers to toolkits on healthcare access, employment, and the realities of living as a neurodivergent adult.

A meaningful counterweight to deficit-focused clinical literature, and a useful entry point into the broader neurodiversity-paradigm literature.
