Autism Research—What’s New in November 2024
In this month’s research roundup, Ann Memmott PgC MA picks out some of the current big debates on Autistic lives, and showcases new and important research from teams and academics working within the field.
The importance of online Autistic communities for a positive Autistic identity
A Q&A with guest contributor Claire about the benefits of engaging with Autistic communities online.
Coercion, grooming and online harms
Coercion and grooming have run like letters through a stick of rock in all the project work I have done for ARC England over the last 15 years. Most recently in supporting women with learning disabilities and autistic women who have experienced domestic abuse and sexual violence, and in the work I am currently involved in on online harms; but the origins go right back to the ARC Safety Net project which identified what we now call ‘mate crime’.

Got something to say?
We commission blogs from neurodivergent writers. We are particularly keen to hear from people of colour, older people, and non-speaking members of our community. Help us in our mission to amplify the views and voices that are most often left unseen and unheard.
