Thank you to everyone who joined us at this year’s Autistic Community Summit!
Created and led by autistic people, the Autistic Community Summit is a day built for us—by us. This gathering is a chance to connect with others who understand, share your experiences, and explore new ways to thrive. We had an amazing day filled with community, collaborative work, inspiration, and learning. All sessions were recorded and are available to watch until December 10.
The Schedule

A FULLY HYBRID EVENT
The Autistic Community Summit is a hybrid event: The keynote presentation and all breakout sessions will be livestreamed and recorded. All livestreamed sessions will also be recorded and the links shared with both virtual and in-person attendees. If you register for in-person and decide to change to virtual, you can always make that change at any time.
