AIE FACT SERIES – Families, Allies & Community Talks (Session 3)

When autistic adults are connected with supportive families, allies, mentors, educators, employers, and peers, strengths become possibilities and community becomes the foundation for growth.

The AIE Families, Allies & Community Talks (FACT) Series brings together autistic adults, families, allies, educators, mentors, employers, and advocates for meaningful conversations about opportunity, community, careers, and creating pathways to success in the entertainment industry and beyond.

Each discussion features conversations with autistic adults, family members, educational partners, employers, and community leaders, followed by audience questions and community discussion.

These are not lectures. They are conversations. Everyone has a voice. Everyone has something to share.

• A place to ask questions.
• A place to explore possibilities.
• A place to build connections.
• A place to learn from experts and one another.
