Autism & Grief Project
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 3 ต.ค. 2022
The Autism & Grief Project's mission is to help adults with autism navigate and cope with the complexities of grief arising from death and loss. The Autism & Grief online toolkit supports and explores the grief experience with personal and social stories, animated videos, and many other resources. Unique materials are designed for autistic adults and the families, friends, professionals, and faith leaders who support them. Topics include processing the loss of a family member or loved one, death of an animal companion, non-death losses, preparing for funerals, and observing rituals of remembrance. The experience of being excluded, misunderstood or inadequately supported in times of grief has been increasingly recognized as common among autistic adults.
Autism & Grief: How will AutismandGrief.org Help?

Before the website launched, Alex was interviewed by Hospice Foundation of America about being on the advisory board and his thoughts about how the the website would help individuals with autism.
