Looks like Autism Women's Network is now Autistic Women and Nonbinary Network!
"AWN is a non-profit corporation and a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization with a mission to provide community, support and resources for Autistic women, girls, nonbinary people, and all others of marginalized genders."
@shoutcacophony Neat! I'd still feel uncomfortable working with a gendered group (any direction, a dysphoric youth does a lot of damage...) but I'm glad this is there for others.
@keiyakins Understandable; I'm wary as well. I'm glad they're making efforts in that direction though, like you said
@shoutcacophony People on their Facebook were shitty about it at first and the only people they were willing to take any shit from about it were trans folks themselves. I really enjoyed watching their willingness to tell TERFs that if they were shocked or upset by this, they must not have been paying attention to all the other trans-affirming content.
Good days. 😘👌
Here's their announcement about the name change: https://awnnetwork.org/autistic-women-non-binary-network-awn/
